Explanation:

Mitosis and meiosis have different purposes, but share common features in how they work. Knowing their similarities is the beginning of understanding how they are different. The fundamental difference between mitosis and meiosis is that mitosis produces two daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Meiosis results in four daughter cells harboring only half of their parent's chromosomes, which underwent recombination. Aside from these two distinct purposes, both mitosis and meiosis occur in multiple stages during which the same general things happen: DNA replication and condensation, nuclear membrane degradation, spindle formation, chromosomal segregation and nuclear reformation. The same mechanisms of chromosomal segregation are at work in both mitosis and meiosis -- centrosomes, microtubules and motor proteins.
