Mitosis and Meiosis?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Both mitosis and meiosis begin with a diploid cell that contains replicated chromosomes. Explain the main differences between these two processes and what types of daughter cells produced by each. (5 points)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(my answer) During meiosis, the chromosomes separate into 4 cells, giving each cell 1 paternal and 1 maternal cell. During mitosis, the diploid cell is replicated genetically. The chromosomes are replicated, then separate to form a different cell. Meiosis goes through 2 rounds of Mitosis to get 4 haploid cells when mitosis happens once and makes 2 diploid cells.

(teacher said) Double check what this question is asking.

What did I do wrong

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

umm..in meiosis its not 2 rounds of mitosis. meiosis 2 is similar to mitosis but not meiosis1. also u need to mention about the chromosomal no.
