Activity 2
I. Complete the Venn Diagram below.
Starts with interphase Produces genetically different daughter cells Makes Gametes
Growth and repair Produces haploid cells DNA is replicated
Ends with 4 daughter cells Cytokinesis is involved Starts with one cell
Genetically identical daughter cells Ends with 2 daughter cells Produces diploid
