One difference between mitosis and meiosis I is that:

1. Homologous chromosome pairs synapse during mitosis
2. Chromosome do not replicate in the interphase preceding meiosis
3. Homologous chromosomes pairs synapse during meiosis but not mitosis
4. Spindle composed of microtubules are not required during meiosis

Chromosome number is reduced during meiosis because the process consists of:

1. Two cell divisions without any chromosome replication
2. A single cell division without any chromosome replication
3. Two cell divisions in which half of the chromosomes are destroyed
4. Two cell divisions and only a single round of DNA replication

A reduction step during meiosis is important because:

(1) It returns the chromosome number to normal before fertilization

(2) There is a mechanism for this

(3) Only one copy of each chromosome is necessary

(4) Otherwise chromosome copies would double each fertilization
