Meiosis vs Mitosis
Meiosis involves two cell divisions that produce four haploid daughter cells from a single diploid parent cell. It occurs during sexual reproduction. Crossing over of chromosomes can occur during meiosis, generating genetic variation. Mitosis involves one cell division that produces two identical diploid daughter cells from a single parent cell. It occurs during asexual reproduction. Crossing over does not occur during mitosis.

The recombination or crossing over of chromosomes during meiosis generates variation.
Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment statesthat allele pairs separate independently during
the formation of gametes. This means that traits are transmitted to offspring independently of one
another. Thus to assort independently the genes have to be located on different chromosomes or
be at a great distance so that they are not linked.
