Mitosis produces an exact copy of the original containing the same 46 chromosomes as the original cell

Meiosis produces 4 individual sex cells ( gametes) with only 23 chromosomes in each. This is so when a sperm cell and and egg cell meet the combine to make 46 total chromosomes with genes from each parent
