• Answer:-

    Mitotic and meiotic are two types of cell division with different purposes. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells for growth and repair, keeping the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. It happens in all body cells.

    Meiosis, however, creates four genetically unique cells called gametes (sperm and egg), each with half the chromosome number. This reduction is essential for sexual reproduction, ensuring offspring have the right chromosome count.

    While mitosis supports general body functions, meiosis is crucial for genetic diversity and reproduction. So, mitosis is about copying cells, and meiosis is about creating reproductive cells.
