12. how does the chromosome number in daughter cells compare to the parent cell in mitosis and meiosis?

Daughter cell have the same number of chromosomes as parent cells in mitosis, whereas in meiosis, daughter cells have only half the number of chromosomes as the parent cells.

Explanation:

Mitosis produces 2 diploid cells, whereas meiosis produces 4 haploid cells.

I hope that this answer helped you! Please mark it Brainliest! :)

In mitosis division produce diploid daughter cells while meiosis produce haploid daughter cells.

Meiosis:  

It is a type  division in which cell divide into 4 haploid daughter cells.  

Mitosis:

It is the division in which cell divide to form 2 diploid daughter cells. This means in mitosis number of chromosomes in daughter cells is same as parents.

Therefore, in mitosis division produce diploid daughter cells while meiosis produce haploid daughter cells.
