First of all, the difference between MITOSIS and MEIOSIS is simple.

Meiosis is ONLY for the replication of sex cells. Where one cell divides twice to create four gametes (sperm or egg). Each gamete has half the number of chromosomes needed to create a full cell so when they come together, they create one full cell. This allows for Mitosis to happen, creating a new being.

Mitosis is for the replication of body cells, basically everything else that is not a sex cell. One cell divides once with the end result being two complete cells. All bodily tissues are included in this type of cell replication (ie, skin, organs, bone, etc.)
