In mitosis, daughter cells are exactly like the parent cell (identical copies).
In meiosis, daughter cells are different but similar in the fact that the chromosomes have undergone crossing over, giving genetic variability. Thus producing a "recombined" daughter cell and essentially not identical to the parent cell.
In somatic cells, ( regular body cells) the daughter cells genetically identical to the parent cells because during mitosis, the chromosomes will replicate and create two sister chromatids. These will separate at the end of mitosis to create an identical cell. In Gamete cell (reproductive cells), the daughter cells are genetically different because of crossing over (genetic combination between two chromosomes) and independent assortment (random orientation of the pairs of homologous chromosomes at the metaphase plate of meiosis 1).
Same number of DNA but daugher cells have 1/2 of the cytoplasm.
The daughter cells are clones of each other and are exactly the same as the parent cell.

How many parent and daughter cells are present for a cell that divides through meiosis?
2 parent cells and 3 daughter cells
Asexually produced daughter cells are?
The genetic information in parent cells is copied exactly and passed to daughter cells.
What is the difference in DNA between parent call and daughter cells?
A cell that undergoes mitosis, such as a bacteria cell, splits to create an identical cell (daughter cell) that has identical DNA. So, when a cells split to multiply and grow, there DNA is the same, unless a mutation occurs.
What is meant by a daughter cell?
Two daughter cells are the result of mitotic cell division in which the parent cell nucleus undergoes mitosis, creating two genetically identical daughter nuclei, followed by cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm which results in two daughter cells, each with an identical nucleus.
What are the daughter cells?
When a cell divides it produces two new cells, Daughter Cells. These are identicle to the parent cell in every way exept size (Nb not true for the first divisions of cell that will become a multicellular organism). To separate, the parent cell must replicate all its DNA so that both the daughters have a full Genetic Code. The DNA is stored within a nucleus (in Eukaryotes, not bacteria etc) and just before the cell splits there are two nuclei in it. These nuclei move through the cytoplasm to the most separate points in the cell, stretching the cell out into a an oval shape. Once this has happend this has happend the middle of the cell shrinks until the two sides meat. Think of it like having a long sausage shaped balloon with a peice of string looped around it. If you pull the string tighter the balloon shrkins in the middle. When the two sides of the parent cell meat they Fuse forming the two new daughter cells.
How do the daughter cells compare to parent cells?
Daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.
Compare the daughter cells and the parent cell?
Daughter cells are the result of cell division from the parent cell. They are genetically identical to the parent cell and are usually smaller in size. The daughter cells carry out the same functions as the parent cell, but may differentiate into specialized cell types.
If you compare the parent cell to the daughter in mitosis what can be said about their chromosomes?
the daughter cells' chromosomes are a identical to the parent cell. they each have a complete set
How do daughter cells at the end of mitosis compare to parent cells at the beginning?
Daughter cells at the end of mitosis are genetically identical to the parent cells at the beginning. They have the same number of chromosomes and carry the same genetic information. The parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells during mitosis.
How does the number of chromosomes in the daughter cell compare with those in the parent cell?
The number of chromosomes in the daughter cell is typically the same as in the parent cell after cell division. This ensures that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes.
How do the daughter cells at the end of mitosis and cytokinesis compare with their parent cell when it was in?
The daughter cells resulting from mitosis and cytokinesis are genetically identical to the parent cell at the start of mitosis. Both daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell and carry out the same functions.
How do daughter cells produced by mitosis compare to the parent cell in size?
they r identical
How are daughter and parent cells alike?
Daughter and parent cells are alike in that they both contain genetic material and are part of the same cell division process. Daughter cells are formed from the division of parent cells and generally inherit similar characteristics from the parent cell.
In mitosis how does a daughter cell compare with its parent cell?
A daughter cell and its parent cell are exact copies of each other.
What is the name of the cell that the daughter cells originate from?
The parent cell that divides to produce daughter cells is typically called the "mother cell" or "parent cell." The daughter cells are the resultant cells of cell division.
How are daughter cells different then the parent cell?
Daughter cells are smaller in volume than the parent cell. This is because they split the cytoplasm of the parent cell during cytokinesis.
How do you compare the parent cell and new cells formed by meiosis?
Parent cell undergoes one round of DNA replication followed by two rounds of cell division to produce four haploid daughter cells in meiosis, which results in genetic variation due to crossing over and random assortment of chromosomes. The new cells formed by meiosis are genetically distinct from the parent cell and from each other, and they contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
