c. Mitosis produces two diploid daughter cells, while meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells.
d. Both processes are always a form of sexual reproduction.

Answer 1

c. Mitosis produces two diploid daughter cells, while meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells.
This is a simple definition problem and you simply needed to memorize the difference between Mitosis and Meiosis.
Mitosis - Normal reproduction resulting in two daughter cells identical to the parent cell. This is the type of reproduction using in growing tissue.
Meiosis - Reproduction used in creating gametes and plant spores. This type of reproduction will result in four daughter cells with only one chromosome from each pair of chromosomes in the parent cell.
