- How is the outcome of meiosis different from the outcome of mitosis? The daughter cells produced in mitosis are genetically different from the parent cells, but have the same number of chromosomes, while these are genetically similar in case of meiosis and have fewer chromosomes. The daughter cells produced in mitosis are genetically similar to the parent cells and have the same number of chromosomes, while these are genetically different in meiosis and have half the number of chromosomes. The daughter cells produced in both cases are genetically similar to the parent cells, but in meiosis, there are fewer chromosomes. The daughter cells produced in both cases are genetically different, but in mitosis, there are fewwer chromosomes in daughter cells.arrow_forwardConstruct 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.
