MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS AND ITS COMPARISON

• It is a type of cell division for somatic cells and for the asexual reproduction of unicellular eukaryotic cells.

  Mitosis
• It is the type of cell division for the production of gametes in sexual reproduction.

  Meiosis
• This type of cell division occurs in Germ cells.

  Meiosis
• This type of cell division occurs in Somatic cells.

  Mitosis
• In this type of cell division, the nucleus divides only once.

  Mitosis
• In this type of cell division, the nucleus divides twice.

  Meiosis
• It is divided into prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

  Mitosis
• Daughter cells are diploid in this type of cell division.

  Mitosis
• Daughter cells are haploid in this type of cell division.

  Meiosis
• This type of cell division produces egg and sperm cells.

  Meiosis
• This type of cell division is involved in genetic variations.

  Meiosis
• This type of cell division is involved in growth and repair/healing.

  Mitosis
• 2 daughter cells are produced in this type of cell division.

  Mitosis
• 4 daughter cells are produced in this type of cell division.

  Meiosis
• No crossing over takes place in this type of cell division.

  Mitosis
• Crossing over takes place during this type of cell division.

  Meiosis
• In this type of cell division, the cytokinesis occurs in telophase.

  Mitosis
• In this type of cell division, the cytokinesis occurs in Telophase I and Telophase II.
