Mutations can be passed down to offspring through meiosis, not mitosis.
Meiosis
No of chromosomes is maintained by meiosis and fertilization .
Mitosis. The cell splits when it gets too big.
Mitosis happens in the body cell'sIt happens in somatic cells. Only sex cell producing cells undergo meiosis
No it doesnt change. The chromosomes will stay at the same number unless there is a mutation through the process of meiosis.

Either through the process of mitosis or meiosis.
Cells can reproduce through mitosis and meiosis.
noIt produces identical cells to mother cell. Meiosis is important in sexual reproduction
All cells in the human body go through mitosis except, the gametes. The gametes are the sex cells and they go through a process called meiosis.
similarities: They both go through interphase
Quite a bit, especially with replication in meiosis and mitosis.
All the cells that divide in your body, except for sex cells, which divide through meiosis, divide by mitosis.

In animals, gametes are formed only through meiosis. Mitosis does not produce gametes. However, in autotrophs, spores composed of gametes go though mitosis to produce a gametophyte.
