Draw a side-by-side comparison of mitosis and meiosis. Include 6 chromosomes in your drawings at the beginning of mitosis and meiosis. Be sure to label the following in each of your drawings where appropriate: chromosomes/chromatin/sister chromatids, mitotic spindle, asters, centromeres, microtubules, centrosomes, kinetochore, and nuclear membrane.

In the following diagram, designate each daughter cell as diploid (2n) or haploid (n).
Construct a table for the different stages of meiosis, giving the number of chromosomes per cell and the number of DNA molecules per cell for a cell that begins with 4 chromosomes (two homologous pairs) in G1. Include the following stages in your table: G1, S, G2, prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I (after cytokinesis), prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, and telophase II (after cytokinesis).
If you were given a cell with 9 chromosome pairs, find the following: centromeres during mitosis prophase chromatids during meiosis metaphase I chromosome number during mitosis metaphase bivalents during pachytene chromosome number during meiosis telophase I
Human cells normally have 46 chromosomes. For each of the following stages, state the number of chromosomes present in the particular cell.a) metaphase of mitosisb) metaphase I of meiosis c) telophase of mitosisd) telophase I of meiosis e) telophase II of meiosis (Remember that a pair of attached chromatids count as one chromosome.)
Which of the following statements does BEST compare the processes of mitosis and meiosis? Group of answer choices Mitosis involves two division cycles and results in haploid gametes, while meiosis consists of one division cycle and results in a diploid daughter cell Mitosis involves two division cycles and results in diploid daughter cells, while meiosis consists of one division cycle and results in haploid gametes. Mitosis involves one division cycle and results in diploid daughter cells, while meiosis consists of two division cycles and results in haploid gametes. Mitosis involves one division cycle and results in haploid gametes, while meiosis consists of two division cycles and results in diploid daughter cells.
