When comparing mitosis with meiosis, which of the following statements is incorrect?
- DNA replication occurs in a cell before mitotic and meiotic cell division.
- The end result of mitosis is the production of two identical haploid daughter cells, whereas the end result of meiosis is the production of four non-identical haploid cells.
- Metaphase of meiosis differs from that of mitosis because homologous pairs line up only during meiosis.
- The function of mitosis is to produce somatic cells, such as skin, blood, and other tissues, whereas meiosis produces gametes.
