Draw diagram

Basis	Mitosis	Meiosis
Number of divisions	One	Two – meiosis 1 and meiosis II
DNA replication	Occurs during interphase	Occurs during interphase
Role	Production of somatic cells for growth of the body	Produces gametes or gametogenesis
Daughter cell produced	Two diploid cells that are genetically identical to parent	Four haploid cell(n) containing half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Genetics	Identical cell	Variation
Crossing over	No	Yes it takes place during prophase 1
Occurs in	All organism	Reproductive cells of humans, animals, plants and fungi
