The major difference is that meiosis forms 4 daughter nuclei from one single nuclei each having half the number of chromosomes as parents.
Mitosis is where the mother nuclei produces 2 identical daughter nuclei containing the same number of chromosomes as the mother nuclei
Usually mitosis occur in somatic cell division ex: Division of skin cells. When the old skin is shed the daughter nuclei are formed which are identical to each other :)
Meiosis is where the gamete formation comes in to play. In a human gamete its is 2n right? But the baby is n that happens in meiosis
ok thanks
