whats the difference between meiosis and mitosis

Meiosis and mitosis are both forms of cell division. For mitosis, the cell divides into two cells. For meiosis, the cell splits twice, forming four cells. The cells produced are called daughter cells, and for mitosis, the daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cell. For meiosis, the daughter cells are not genetically identical. Meiosis is used to produce gametes, which are sex cells however mitosis occurs all the time for repairing cells and for growth.The DNA content of the daughter cells also differs. For mitosis, the daughter cells have diploid number of chromosomes. However, for meiosis, the daughter cells have haploid, meaning half, number of chromosomes as the cell splits twice.
