Mitosis occurs when the body needs more diploid cells, for example to heal a cut on the skin. Meiosis is the formation of 4 haploid sex cells, or gametes.
Meiosis involves two divisions of the nucleus, while mitosis involves only one. Meiosis produces four sex cells that are haploid, meaning they have half the number of chromosomes. Mitosis, on the other hand, produces two cells that are identical to the original cell. These cells are diploid, meaning they have pairs of chromosomes
