Which of these divides one parent cell into four GAMETE cells?
Meiosis
Fertilization
Mitosis
Cleavage
Meiosis
In humans, meiosis occurs in
Sex cells
Body cells

Neither sex cell, nor body cells
Sex cells
An important event that occurs during Prophase I of meiosis that results in an exchange of genetic material between homlogous chromsomes, is called
Gamete formation
Fertilization
Crossing over
Cytokinesis
Crossing over
Random, independent assortment during metaphase I of Meiosis results in
Genetically identical gametes (sex cells)
Genetically diverse gametes (sex cells)
Both of these are correct
Neither of these are correct
Genetically divers gametes (sex cells)
Which of the following is a similarity between mitosis and meiosis?
Both occur in sex cells
Both have the same stages of division
Both are types of cell division
Both result in haploid daughter cells
Both are types of cell division
Which of the following is a difference between mitosis and meiosis?
Mitosis is a type of cell division, meiosis is not
Meiosis is a type of cell division, mitosis is not
In mitosis chromosomes are divided, in meiosis they are not
Mitosis results in diploid cells, meiosis does not
Mitosis results in diploid cells, meiosis does not
