3. Short Answer Write in 3-4 complete sentences for full credit.
What are three differences between meiosis and mitosis?
 Gamete Somatic Cells Haploid Diploid
 Sexual Asexual 4 Cells 2 Cells
What is the difference between sexual and asexual reproduction?
 Mitosis Meiosis Egg Sperm
 Genetic Variation Genetically Identical Survival
What is the difference between haploid and diploid cells? What process creates each one?
 Half Mitosis Meiosis Gamete
Somatic Cell
Bonus: Which is 2N and which is N (N=# of chromosomes) 
“Both mitosis and meiosis are needed to grow and repair your somatic (body) cells.” Agree or disagree with this statement and write at least two sentences justifying your choice.
