Answer 1

Here’s the breakdown of each statement describing either mitosis or meiosis:

1. Results in cells with identical genetic material - Mitosis
2. Results in cells with 23 chromosomes - Meiosis
3. The type of cell division that produces body cells - Mitosis
4. The type of cell division that produces gametes - Meiosis
5. Results in 4 haploid cells - Meiosis
6. Results in 2 diploid cells - Mitosis
7. Results in cells with 46 chromosomes - Mitosis
8. Results in cells with unique combinations of genetic material - Meiosis

This should cover all the statements correctly associated with either mitosis or meiosis.
