Mitosis is the process by which <u>cells duplicate</u>.
Meiosis is a similar process which is just used to make <u>reproductive cells</u> such as eggs or sperm.
In mitosis, the cell DNA arranges into <u>46 chromosomes</u>, duplicates, and then divides into <u>two new cells</u>.
In meiosis, the same duplication occurrs except <u>four cells</u> are created, each with only <u>23</u> chromosomes. (You know how you get half of them from each parent? This is so that the offspring have genetic variation.)
Another thing to notice about meiosis is that the cells are <u>not identical</u> like in mitosis, which simply duplicates them. Furthermore,<u> in males all four sex cells are used</u> as sperm but <u>in females only one</u> of these cells develops into an egg whereas the rest, called polar bodies, are reabsorbed into the body.

The answer to the question is false.
Answer:
Explanation:
Isotonic: an isotonic solution is one that has the same osmotic pressure compared to another one usually cells or body fluid.
If eye drops had high osmotic pressure they would cause the eye to be dry since fluid would move out the cells making up the eye.
If the eye drops had low osmotic pressure this would cause swelling of the eye since the cells would retain the fluid from the eye drop.
