What is Meiosis and Mitosis?
Mitosis is like a photocopier for cells; it creates two identical daughter cells for growth and repair. Meiosis, on the other hand, is like a genetic shuffler, producing four non-identical daughter cells for sexual reproduction.

Mitosis is cell division for growth and repair, producing two identical cells. Meiosis is for making sperm and egg cells, resulting in four genetically unique cells.
Mitosis makes copies, meiosis makes diversity. Simple as that!
With mitosis, you get two identical cells to replace old ones. In meiosis, you get four varied cells, essential for baby-making.
Meiosis and mitosis are both ways cells divide, but mitosis makes two identical cells while meiosis makes four genetically different ones. Mitosis is like copying a recipe perfectly, and meiosis is like remixing it into four unique dishes!
