Meiosis vs. Mitosis
Meiosis vs. Mitosis
Meiosis is a form of nuclear division that reduces the number of
chromosomes. It forms daughter cells that are genetically different
from the parent cell, and they contain half the number of
chromosomes. This division produces gametes, sperm and egg
cells, in sexually reproducing organisms. It requires two divisions.

Mitosis is a form of nuclear division whereby a parent cell divides
its replicated DNA and forms identical daughter cells with the
same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. This division
allows organisms to grow and replace damaged cells.
