Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Mitosis is an equational division resulting in two genetically identical diploid daughter cells, not four. Meiosis is a reductional division involving two successive stages, meiosis I and meiosis II, producing four haploid cells. Crossing over, the exchange of genetic material, occurs exclusively during the pachytene stage of prophase I in meiosis, not in mitosis. Only statement 2 is correct.
