Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

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.

Explanation:

One of the key differences in mitosis is a single cell divides into two cells that are replicas of each other and have the same number of chromosomes. This type of cell division is good for basic growth, repair, and maintenance. In meiosis a cell divides into four cells that have half the number of chromosomes.

Answer 2

Mitosis and Meiosis

Explanation:

• Mitosis is the type of cell division required for growth and repair of body .
• Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells , major purpose of mitosis is  growth and replacement of worn-out cells.
• It has following phases- prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.
• Meiosis is involved in formation of gametes.
• It is a process where a cell divides twice to produce four cells.
• In meiosis daughter cells contain the half the number of chromosomes present in  the parent cell.
