The table can be completed as follows:

Explanation:

• 1)  There are two rounds of division in the process of meiosis.

• 2) Four total cells are produced at the end of meiosis.

• 3) Duplicated chromosomes separate during mitosis and meiosis both.

• 4) DNA is copies during interphase of both the processes.

• 5) At the end, the chromosome number is same as the parent cell in the process of mitosis.

• 6) Body cells are produced by the process of mitosis.

• 7) The process of mitosis produces cells which are the same as the parent cell.

• 8) The process of meiosis produces cells which are different from the parent cell.

• 9) Meiosis is the process by which sex cells are produced.

• 10) Meiosis is the process by which cells with half the number of chromosomes are produced.

• 11) The process of mitosis has only one round of division.

• 12) Chromosome pairs separate during both mitosis and meiosis.

• 13) Two cells are produced in mitosis.
