How is meiosis different from mitosis?

2D video · 32 seconds

Follows one cell down two paths: mitosis makes two identical diploid copies (2n to 2n), while in meiosis homologous chromosomes pair up and cross over, the pairs split in meiosis I, and the cell ends as four genetically unique haploid gametes (2n to n).
