Answer 1

C

Mitosis produces identical daughter cells with same number of chromosomes (assuming there is mutation)

Answer 2

16

Answer 3

toast and jam says it right.  (c) or 16

Answer 4

c) 16

Mitosis creates two daughter cells, identical to the parent cell and to each other. Meiosis, on the other hand, makes four daughter cells with half the amount of chromosomes as the parent cell.

I hope that helps! :)
