Question

10. Which type of cell division is required for growth and repair
of body and which type is involved in formation of gametes?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Hence, Mitosis is the type of cell division that is involved in the growth and repair of the body whereas meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of gametes.

Answer 2

$\huge \fbox \red{answer}$

There are two ways in which a cell divides:

Mitosis

Meiosis

Mitosis is the type of cell division that results in the formation of two daughter cells each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Hence, Mitosis is the type of cell division that is involved in the growth and repair of the body whereas meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of gametes.
