Which statement describes one difference between mitosis and meiosis in animal cells?
mitosis produces sex cells and meiosis produces diploid cells
mitosis produces haploid cells in meiosis produces somatic cells
mitosis produces two daughter cells in meiosis produces four daughter cells
mitosis produces four daughter cells in meiosis produces two diploid cells

Mitosis produces two daughter cells and meiosis produces four daughter cells

Explanation:

In mitosis, you start off with one parent cell, and it duplicates itself, so as you could see, you would have the original cell as well as the duplicated version, which is a total of 2. In meiosis, there are two main phases, Meiosis I and Meiosis II. The first phase produces two cells and the second phase takes those two cells to form four daughter cells / gametes
