Answer

Brief Explanations:

Mitosis and meiosis both start with chromosome - duplication before cell - division. Mitosis is for growth and asexual reproduction, and meiosis is for sexual reproduction. Option A is incorrect as neither increases chromosome number. Only meiosis produces tetrads (during prophase I) and gametes.

Answer:

B. They both involve duplicating chromosomes
