Answer:

Mitosis is the process of cell division usually dedicated to cell growth or asexual reproduction. There are five phases of mitosis, which include prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. These phases are followed by cytokinesis. The end product of mitosis is two diploid daughter cells that are genetically identical to the mother cell.

Meiosis is the process of cell division that is dedicated to sexual reproduction. Meiosis occurs in two parts, which the same phases of mitosis that are essentially repeated twice. Meiosis increases genetic diversity due to crossing over and independent assortment that occurs during meiosis 1. The end product of meiosis are four haploid cells that originated from one mother cell.
