How is meiosis different from mitosis in terms of their processes and outcomes?

MeiOSis is a type of cell division that produces gametes with half the number of chromosomes, while mitosis is a cell division process that produces identical daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. MeiOSis involves two rounds of division, resulting in four genetically unique cells, while mitosis involves one round of division, resulting in two identical cells.
