How do mitosis and meiosis differ from each other?
A) Mitosis results in the production of gametes; meiosis results in the production of cells, which are used for the organism's growth and replacement of damaged cells.
B) The cells formed by mitosis are diploid; the cells formed by meiosis are haploid.
C) The goal of mitosis is to produce cells that are genetically identical to the original parent cell; the goal of meiosis is to produce cells that contain twice the number of chromosomes as the original parent cell.
D) Synapsis and crossing over occur in mitosis to ensure new combinations of genetic material; synapsis and crossing over do not occur in meiosis.
