Summary Introduction
To determine:
The similarities between mitosis and meiosis.
Introduction:
Mitosis and meiosis are the two forms of cell division in eukaryotes. Two daughter cells with the identical genetic composition as the mother cell are produced by mitosis. Four genetically different haploid sex cells or gametes are produced from diploid cells by the process of meiosis.
