    1. Similarities:

    they are both processes of cell division by which cells reproduce.

    They share several steps of the process (prophase, metaphase, anaphase e telophase, cytokinesis) but meiosis has another division also with those same steps.

    In both cases the cell duplicates its DNA by pulling it apart into two sets, place the sets on each end of the cell, and then divide down the middle.

    Both produce new cells based on their parent cells' genes.

    2. The differences:

    Mitosis:

    - has 1 division per cycle

    - one cell produces 2 new cells

    - the genetic information in the mother-cell and the daughter-cells are the same. (the number of chromosomes is also the same)

    - it occurs in somatic cells

    Meiosis:

    - two divisions per cycle.

    - one cell when divides produces 4 new cells

    - the new cells have different genetic information. mixes the the genetic material from the parent cells

    - the number of chromosomes of the daughter cells is half of the mother's.
