Explanation:
Mitosis
Meiosis
Where it occurs
Occurs in all organisms, except viruses
Only occurs in animals, plants, and fungi
Cells it produces
Creates body/somatic cells
Creates germ/sex cells
Number of cell divisions
One cell division ( 4 stages total)
Two cell divisions (8 stages total)
Prophase length
Prophase is short
Prophase I is longer
Recombination/crossing over
No recombination/crossing over in prophase
Recombination/crossing over of chromosomes during prophase I
Metaphase
During metaphase, individual chromosomes line up on cell’s equator
During metaphase I, pairs of chromosomes line up on cell’s equator
Anaphase
During anaphase, sister chromatids move to opposite ends of the cell
During anaphase I, sister chromatids move together to the same cell pole.
During anaphase II, sister chromatids are separated to opposite ends of the cell
Number of cells created
End result: two daughter cells
End result: four daughter cells
Ploidy
Creates diploid daughter cells
Creates haploid daughter cells
Genetics
Daughter cells are genetically identical
Daughter cells are genetically different
