What is an accurate description of mitosis and meiosis

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which a cell divides into two daughter cells, each containing equal and identical genetic material as that of the parent cell.

For example, if a cell contains 46 chromosomes (2n), then the two daughter cells would also contain 46 (2n) chromosomes after mitosis.

The mitotic division helps in growth and repair of cells.

In contrast, the meiosis is a cell division in which a parent cell divides to produce four daughter cells, each containing half the chromosomes present in a parent cell.

For example, a cell with 46 (2n) chromosomes divide with the help of meiotic division to produce 4 daughter cells, each containing 23 chromosomes.

The meiotic division usually helps in the production of haploid gametes from diploid parent cells.
