Because meiosis creates cells that are destined to becomegametes (or reproductive cells), this reduction in chromosome number is critical — without it, the union of two gametes duringfertilization would result inoffspring with twice the normal number of chromosomes

Meiosis has two rounds of genetic separation and cellular division while mitosis only has one of each. In meiosis homologous chromosomes separate leading to daughter cells that are not genetically identical. In mitosis the daughter cells are identical to the parent as well as to each other.
