The correct answer is C. Mitosis produces 2 genetically identical diploid cells, while meiosis produces 4 genetically unique haploid cells.
Mitosis is where a parent cell duplicates its genetic information before dividing into 2, therefore, the daughter cells from mitosis are completely identical to their parent cell and the other daughter cell, and we call the cells which has complete genetic information as diploid. Mitosis is very useful in repairing, growth, asexual reproduction etc.
Meanwhile, meiosis involves 2 times of division. The parent cell first duplicates its genetic information, but then swapping them, and divide. 2 new cells are produced. Then these 2 cells are further divided but without duplicating the genetic material. Therefore, this results in 4 genetically different cells. We call them haploid, as they only have half of the chromosomes from their parent, which is the opposite of diploid. Meiosis is important in producing sex cells.
Diffusion. Passive transport is a way that small molecules or ions move across the cell membrane without input of energy by the cell. ... Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration of the molecules to an area with a lower concentration.
have a great day!!
Enzymes acts as a catalyst in chemical reactions to speed up the rate of reaction.
Enzymes are not necessarily needed because substrates can disintegrate on their own, but enzymes are helpful to aid this process.
