differences between mitosis and meiotic cell division
Answers
Mitotic cell division:
One daughter cell divides once to form two new daughter cells.
Takes place in somatic cells.
Takes place more frequently.
Meiotic Cell division:
One daughter cell divides twice to form four daughter cells.
Takes place in germ cells.
Takes place less frequently.

Hey here is the answer to your question
Mitosis:
1- Divides to form 2 cells.
2- Cell divides only once.
3- Prophase is simple.
4- No synapsis occurs (synapsis means paring of homoloud chromosomes).
5- No crossing over takes place.
6- Chromosomes number remains same at end of division.
7- Takes place in somatic cells in body. Eg: hair,skin,organs etc.
8- Occurs in both sexually and asexually reproducting organisms.
Meiosis:
1- Divides to form 4 cells.
2- There are 2 cell division.
3- Prophase is divided into 5 parts
1) Laptotene
2) Zygotene
3) Pachytene
4) Diplotene
5) Diakinesis
4- Synapsis occurs
5- Crossing over takes place ( crossing means Exchange of genetic material between 2 homologous chromosomes)
6- Chromosomes number is halved at end of meiosis
7- Takes place in Germany cells. Eg: Sperms,ovums etc
8- occurs only in sexually reproducing organisms.
Sexual reproduction:
Off spring produced from 2 parents
Asexual reproduction:
Off spring produced from 1 parent
