Which option correctly contrasts the named ideas for Reproduction, Sexual and asexual reproduction: students must describe sexual reproduction as the joining or fusion of male and female gametes.
- A.Correct contrast: Mitosis produces identical cells; meiosis produces genetically different gametes. This matches Sexual and asexual reproduction because students must describe sexual reproduction as the joining or fusion of male and female gametes.
- B.Reversed contrast: Claiming mitosis produces gametes. This would blur Mitosis vs meiosis instead of testing Sexual and asexual reproduction.
- C.Over-broad contrast: Forgetting chromosome number is maintained in mitosis but halved in meiosis. This misses the objective focus on describe sexual reproduction as the joining or fusion of male and female gametes.
- D.Unrelated contrast: It moves into a neighbouring Unit 4.6 idea rather than Reproduction / Sexual and asexual reproduction.
