Question

match each description or term to either mitosis or meiosis
homologues pair up
crossing over occurs
reduction division
makes exact genetic copies of cells
makes more somatic cells
only separates sister chromatids
separates members of the homologous pair and sister chromatids
makes gametes

Explanation:

Homologues pair up, crossing over occurs, reduction division, separating members of the homologous pair and sister chromatids, and making gametes are characteristic of meiosis as they contribute to genetic diversity in sexual - reproduction. Making exact genetic copies of cells, making more somatic cells, and only separating sister chromatids are features of mitosis which is for growth, repair, and asexual cell - division.

Answer:

Homologues pair up: MEIOSIS
Crossing over occurs: MEIOSIS
Reduction Division: MEIOSIS
Makes exact genetic copies of cells: MITOSIS
Makes more somatic cells: MITOSIS
Only separates sister chromatids: MITOSIS
Separates members of the homologous pair and sister chromatids: MEIOSIS
Makes gametes: MEIOSIS
