The Venn diagram compares and contrasts meiosis and mitosis. If you were to add to the Venn diagram, which description would not apply to meiosis?

A) genetic diversity

B) sexual reproduction

C) diploid daughter cells

D) haploid daughter cells

the answer is C

C) diploid daughter cells

Explanation:

Meiosis can be described as a process of cell division in which the chromosome number is reduced to half of that of the parents. Four daughter cells are produced as a result of meiosis and these cells are haploid. Hence, option C, diploid daughter cells will not apply to meiosis.

Mitosis can be described as a process of cell division in which two new daughter cells are produced which are identical to the parent cells. The daughter cells are diploid. Hence, this description would be applied to mitosis.
