Answer:

In mitosis, parental cells and daughter cells are identical, while in meiosis the daughter cells possess half of the chromosomes of the parental cells and recombined genetic material.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eukaryotic cells have two types of cell division, mitosis for somatic cells and meiosis for sex cells or gametes.

  1. In mitosis, two daughter cells identical to the original one originate from a diploid cell. It is the division on which the growth, development and repair of tissues depend.
  2. Meiosis implies a reductive cell division, so from a diploid cell haploid daughter cells, called gametes, are originated. In addition, in meiosis, recombination of genes occurs through crossing over.

There is no difference between parental cells and daughter cells in mitosis, but daughter cells in meiosis have half the chromosomes of the original cell and their genetic material is recombined.
