Mitosis differs from meiosis in the following ways:
1. Mitosis results in a full complement of chromosomes in two cells, whereas meiosis results in four cells having half the number of chromosomes;
2. Mitosis only occurs in somatic or body cells, whereas meiosis occurs in production of gametes or sex cells;
3. In mitosis, each cell receives one of each chromosome found in parent cells, while in meiosis, each cell receives one member of each pair of chromosomes.
