• prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase

• beginning, middle, end, final

• A, B, C, D

• prephase, postphase, interphase, prophase

What are the main differences between mitosis and meiosis?

• Type of organisms, location in the body, and time duration

• Color of the cells, size of the cells, and shape of the cells

• Number of divisions, number of daughter cells, and genetic variation

• Temperature, pH level, and atmospheric pressure

Explain the comparison of meiosis I and meiosis II.

• Meiosis I and meiosis II are the same process and have no differences.

• Meiosis I involves the formation of gametes, while meiosis II involves the formation of zygotes.

• Meiosis I involves the separation of homologous chromosomes, while meiosis II involves the separation of sister chromatids.

• Meiosis I involves the separation of sister chromatids, while meiosis II involves the separation of homologous chromosomes.

In which stage of mitosis do the chromosomes line up at the center of the cell?

• Anaphase

• Metaphase

• Telophase

• Prophase

What is the purpose of meiosis in the human body?

• To produce somatic cells

• To produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes

• To produce cells with double the number of chromosomes

• To produce cells with no chromosomes

What is the significance of crossing over in meiosis?

• It has no effect on genetic diversity

• It increases genetic diversity

• It only occurs in mitosis

• It decreases genetic diversity

Which phase of meiosis involves the separation of homologous chromosomes?

• Mitosis

• Meiosis II

• Interphase

• Meiosis I

Explain the role of genetic variation in meiosis.

• Genetic variation in meiosis is determined by the gender of the organism

• Genetic variation in meiosis is a result of identical genetic material in the parent cells

• Genetic variation in meiosis is caused by a lack of environmental factors

• Genetic variation in meiosis is created through the processes of crossing over and independent assortment.
