Mito sis: The metaphase plate is made up of chromosome pairs. Meio sis: The metaphase plate is made up of paired chromosome pairs. Mito sis: Two chromatids of a chromosome (Progeny cells) are genetically similar. The genetic constitution of the daughter cells is identical to that of the parent cells.
Comparing Meiosis and Mitosis: Meiosis and mitosis are both preceded by one round of DNA replication; however, meiosis includes two nuclear divisions. The four daughter cells resulting from meiosis are haploid and genetically distinct. The daughter cells resulting from mitosis are diploid and identical to the parent cell. The main differences between mitosis and meiosis occur in meiosis I. In meiosis I, the homologous chromosome pairs become associated with each other and are bound together with the synaptonemal complex.
