Mitosis is all about producing two identical daughter cells for growth and repair, while meiosis is the master of creating four genetically distinct gametes for sexual reproduction. Think clone vs. mix!

Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells, while meiosis produces four genetically unique cells. Meiosis has two rounds of division (meiosis I and II), and mitosis only has one. Plus, meiosis is for making gametes (sperm and eggs), and mitosis is for growth and repair!

Mitosis: one division, identical cells, body's everyday builder. Meiosis: two divisions, unique cells, genetic shuffler for reproduction.

Mitosis creates cells for growth and repair; meiosis creates genetic diversity in sex cells. Simple as that.

Mitosis = 2 identical cells. Meiosis = 4 unique cells. Simple as that.
