In animal cells (meiosis) the parent (which is a diploid cell with homologous pairs of chromosomes) seperates into two daughter cells containing the replicated pairs of sister chromatids. The process of meiosis is begun again (meiosis II) from which the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes. Then, the two diploid cells separate into 4 haploid daughter cells containing 1 chromosome. This is a generalized answer without the steps of meiosis described.
it is different from the parent cells because they split from the parent cells
Mitosis
When a cell undergoes cell division, it splits to produce two new cells. These new cells are called daughter cells. The original cell which splits to produce the daughter cells is known as the parent cell.
The daughter cells have the same # of chromosomes & the same amount of DNA
Sister Cells or Daughter Cells. (basically they clone themselves) But when they split both cells are new, hence the daughter cells.

Daughter cells are smaller in volume than the parent cell. This is because they split the cytoplasm of the parent cell during cytokinesis.
Mitosis
All cells originate from a previous cell, and if there is only one of them it is called the "parent cell". In the context of reproducing, the cell made from a parent cell is called the "daughter cell".
parent cells are called big giant cocks called dicks
When a cell undergoes cell division, it splits to produce two new cells. These new cells are called daughter cells. The original cell which splits to produce the daughter cells is known as the parent cell.
The daughter cells have the same # of chromosomes & the same amount of DNA
Sister Cells or Daughter Cells. (basically they clone themselves) But when they split both cells are new, hence the daughter cells.
This process is called cell division or mitosis.
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.
It depends on how the parent cell multiplies. In mitosis 1 parent cell devides into 2 cells. In meiosis 1 parent cell devides into 4 cells.
It is called cytokinesis, and it pinches in to complete the division of the mother cell into two daughter cells
