Meiosis is a special type of nuclear division which segregates one copy of each homologous chromosome into each new gamete. Mitosis maintains the cell's original ploidy level (for example, one diploid 2n cell producing two diploid 2n cells; one haploid n cell producing two haploid n cells; etc.).
Mitosis is the most important part of cell division because it is the process by which the parent cell gives its DNA to its two daughter cells. Mitosis is an asexual form of reproduction. In single-celled organisms, it makes two offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.
