Which statement is TRUE about mitosis and meiosis? Mitosis is the replication of sex cells and meiosis is the replication of somatic cells. The result of meiosis is 2 identical daughter cells. The result of mitosis is 4 genetically different daughter cells. Meiosis produces cells that can fertilize other cells produced from meiosis. Mitosis produces cells used to repair or grow an organism. The result of both processes creates daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other. The difference between mitosis and meiosis is the total number of cells that are produced.
