Yes, mitosis involves homologous chromosomes, but they don't pair up like they do in meiosis. Instead, each chromosome replicates and the sister chromatids are pulled apart to ensure each daughter cell gets an identical set.

In mitosis, homologous chromosomes exist individually. They don't form pairs or undergo crossing over like in meiosis.

Nope, in mitosis, homologous chromosomes are present but they don't pair up or recombine. They just split into sister chromatids.

Homologous chromosomes are there in mitosis, but they stay solo. No funny business like in meiosis.
