Differences between mitosis and meiosis

Mitosis is the division of cells like when a sperm and egg fertilize and create an embroyo. Meiosis is the creation of sperm or eggs

Mitosis produces two daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell. If the parent cell is haploid (N), then the daughter cells will be haploid. If the parent cell is diploid, the daughter cells will also be diploid.
This type of cell division allows multicellular organisms to grow and repair damaged tissue.

Meiosis produces daughter cells that have one half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Meiosis enables organisms to reproduce sexually. Gametes (sperm and eggs) are haploid.
Meiosis involves two divisions producing a total of four daughter cells.

Meiosis is reductional cell division in which chromosomes in daughter is half d parent's no.(but DNA no.,remains same),there r four daughter cells formed frm one parent cell,it occurs usually in allosomal(sex)cells.......but in mitosis no.,of daughter cells is two fr a parent cell.,daughter cell has same no.,of chromosomes as parent chromosomes,it occurs in autosomal(somatal) cells...

Mitosis is a vegetative division where the daughter cells are identical to those of parents, similar to Paramecium propagation.
But meiosis causes reduction of chromosomes, i.e, the diploid parental cells lead to monoploid daughter cells
