Respuesta :

Oseni

Answer:

Four

Explanation:

Meiosis produces 4 daughter cells of different genetic types as a result of crossing over or exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids within tetrads. Mitosis on the other hand produces identical daughter cells.

Hence, the haploid ascospores will contain a maximum of 4 different genetic types.
