Meiosis and mitosis are both preceded by one round of DNA replication; however, meiosis includes two nuclear divisions. The four daughter cells resulting from meiosis are haploid and genetically distinct. The daughter cells resulting from mitosis are diploid and identical to the parent cell. so the similarities are: -ways for cells to divide -same number of chromosome as the original cell -both have the basic 5 phases -both processes go through chromosome replication -Meiosis II is similar to Mitosis I hope this is helpful :))) have a nice day
