Mitosis vs Meiosis Venn Diagram
Mitosis
End product is 2 daughter
cells
Somatic cells undergo this
process
Creates body cells (liver,
blood, muscle)
Purpose is for growth and
maintenance
Results with same # of
chromosomes as parent cell
Creates a human cell with
46 chromosomes
Creates 2 diploid daughter
cells
Total of 6 stages
SAME
Both undergo DNA
replication
Create new cells – daughter
cells
Occur in plants and animals
Start with one parent cell
Meiosis
End product is 4 daughter
cells
Germ cells undergo this
process
Creates sex cells (sperm,
egg)
Purpose is for reproduction
Result with half # of
chromosomes as parent cell
Creates a human cell with
23 chromosomes
Creates 4 haploid daughter
cells
Total of 10 stages
Crossing over occurs
