Daughter cells are smaller in volume than the parent cell. This is because they split the cytoplasm of the parent cell during cytokinesis.
because daughter cell goes to partys and parent doesnt
Daughter and parent cells are alike because the daughter cell comes from the parent cell.
Daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.
Homologous chromosomes assort independently, so each gamete has a unique combination of alleles
In mitosis, daughter cells are exactly like the parent cell (identical copies). In meiosis, daughter cells are different but similar in the fact that the chromosomes have undergone crossing over, giving genetic variability. Thus producing a "recombined" daughter cell and essentially not identical to the parent cell.

daughter cells have half the number of cells that a parent cell has
The two daughter cells that result from mitosis are diploid just like the parent cell. The daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiosis, 4 daughter cells result each with half the number of chromosomes that the parent cell had and are therefore called haploid.
Mitosis followed by cytokinesis results in two genetically identical, diploid daughter cells. Meiosis followed by cytokinesis results in four genetically non-identical, haploid daughter cells.
In mitosis (one parent cell), the daughter cells have the same genetic material as the parent (unless there is a mutation). In meiosis (two parent cells), the daughter cell/s will share some genetic material with either parent.
In mitotic cell division, the daughter cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiotic cell division, the daughter cells contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
2 parent cells and 3 daughter cells
