Compare and contrast what happens in mitosis and meiosis.
mitosis is important for growth and repair, while meiosis occurs in cells involved in sexual reproduction.
mitosis is important for reproductive cells, while meiosis is needed for growth and repair of body cells.
mitosis is a process that results in genetically different daughter cells, while meiosis is a process that results in identical daughter cells.
mitosis is a process that requires two cell divisions, while meiosis is a process that requires one cell division and results in identical daughter cells.

The first one would be  the correct answer

Explanation: Mitosis is important for growth ans repair, while meiosis occurs in cells involved in sexual reproduction. Why, because, mitosis, which produces genetically identical cells, is the basis of growth, tissue repair and asexual reproduction. The other form of division of the genetic material is called meiosis.  Meiosis is a process that shares mechanisms with mitosis, but it should not be confused with it, since meiosis is typical of the cell division of gametes. It produces genetically distinct cells and, is the basis of sexual reproduction and genetic variability.
