The differences between Mitosis and Meiosis is as follows:

·Mitosis has only one round of genetic separation and cellular division, while Meiosis has two.

·Daughter cells in Mitosis are genetically identical to both parent cells, and each other, whilst Daughter cells in Meiosis are not.

KELPEL (again)!!!

This is easy:

When reproducing, mitosis can reproduce two different ways: sexually and asexually. I personally find this to be very interesting. :P
Mitosis allows DNA to replicate only one time for cell division.
In mitosis there is no synapsis.

Meiosis on the other hand is more complicated.
In meiosis this allows DNA to replicate twice for cell division.
Meiosis includes synapsis.
When reproducing, meiosis only allows sexual reproduction.

There, I'm finally done. xD

Hope this helps!
