Some Differences Between Mitosis and Meiosis

There are two ways of Cell Division and Reproduction called Mitosis and Meiosis, where there is some differences between them which you must know

MITOSIS

1) It occurs in all the body cells including germ cells

2) The Cell Division is Equational

3) It consists of only Two Daughter Cells

4) The Synapsis does not occur

5) The Crossing Over does not occur


MEIOSIS

1) It occurs only in the Germ cells

2) The Division is Reductional

3) It consists of four daughter cells

4) The Synapses occur in the zygotene of prophase -1

5) The Crossing over occurs in the pachytne Prophase -1
