Biology 12: Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
Name : __________________________
Instructions:
Compare the two processes of mitosis and meiosis by completing the table below. Read each characteristic and
make short jot notes discussing any important differences, similarities or events occurring in each process. Please
note that yes or no answers are not appropriate.
CHARACTERISTIC
Importance of process in the life cycle of a cell/organism
Type of reproduction
Types of cells that undergo the process (areas of the body)
Types of cells produced by the process
Behaviour of homologous chromosomes during prophase
Behaviour of homologous chromosomes during metaphase
Number of nuclear divisions
Replication of DNA
Cytokinesis
MITOSIS
MEIOSIS
