Mitosis produces two diploid cells (2n). Meiosis produces four haploid cells (n). Mitosis: 2 cells-8 chromosomes. Meiosis: 4 cells-4chromosomes.
What is mitosis?
Mitosis is a cell division process through which a diploid somatic cell (2n), produces two daughter diploid cells (2n). During mitosis, the whole-cell first suffers duplication of its content and then it separates. Mitosis occurs in somatic cells and in germ cells.
What is meiosis?
Meiosis is a cell division process that produces gametes from germ cells. Through Meiosis, a diploid cell (2n) produces four haploid daughter cells (n). After DNA replication there are two meiotic phases.
- The first one is a reductive phase, in which homologous chromosomes separate.
- In the second phase, the cell suffers a new, not reductive division.
Fruit cells ⇒ 8 chromosomes
- After mitosis ⇒ 2 new daughter cells with 8 chromosomes (2n)
- After meiosis ⇒ 4 new cells with 4 chromosomes (n)
