Meiosis results in 4 haploid daughter cells with only half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
Mitosis results in 2 diploid daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.
meiosis 4 and mitosis 2
In mitosis, the daughter cells (2 produced per cell division) contain 2 copies of each chromosome (similar to the parent cell before division)
In meosis, the daughter cells (2 produced per cell division) contain only one copy of each chromosome (half the chromosomal content of the parent cell)
Meiosis results in 4 haploid daughter cells with only half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
Mitosis results in 2 diploid daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.
because in metaphase 2 of meiosis there are 2 different cells, which means the chromosomes duplicated

Two types of cell division in eukaryotes (nucleated organisms) are meiosis and mitosis. Meiosis halves the number of chromosomes and produces gametes. Mitosis retains the number of chromosomes and is involved in growth and repair of injury.
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.
Meiosis creates four daughter cells, and mitosis results in two.

gametic (sperm or egg) cells do not carry out mitosis, instead they carry out meiosis. Mitosis gives a diploid number of chromosomes to each cell, meiosis gives a haploid number.
No of chromosomes is maintained by meiosis and fertilization .
Metaphase of meiosis 2 has the haploid number of chromosomes at the equator of the spindle. In meiosis 1, during metaphase, there are still pairs of homologous chromosomes lined up at the equator.

meiosis 1
Mitosis, of course.
meiosis and mitosis do not work together because they replicate different types of cells. They are different because (1) the number of daughter cells produced after the end of the cycle (2) meiosis goes through 2 stages while mitosis goes through one and (3) they both reproduce different types of cells.
In mitosis, the chromosome number remains constant - each daughter cell receives the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. However, in meiosis, the chromosome number is halved - the resulting gametes have half the number of chromosomes compared to the original parent cell.
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.
