Homologous chromosomes code for the same genes.

Homologous pairs contain one chromosome inherited from the father and one from the mother.

Homologous pairs contain one original chromosome and one replicated copy.

Human cells contain 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes.

In mitosis, single chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromere, while in meiosis I, homologous pairs of chromosomes are pulled apart from one another.

In mitosis, homologous pairs of chromosomes are pulled apart from one another, while in meiosis I, single chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromere.

In mitosis, homologous chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromeres, while in meiosis I, single chromosomes pair up before being pulled apart.

In mitosis, single chromosomes pair up before being pulled apart, while in meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromeres.

Meiosis produces 4 gametes.

The cells resulting from meiosis are genetically distinct from their parent cell.

Gametes contain all of the genetic information necessary to produce offspring.

Meiosis produces 4 haploid cells.
