In mitosis, the offspring is a perfect copy of it's parent. In meiosis, the offspring is different. We are the result of meiosis. BTW I learned that about 1 week ago in Science 7. Wow. I guess these dumb classes can be useful if you go around answering random questions on Answers.com. :)

Between meiosis and mitosis, which one would be considered a form of sexual reproduction?
Unlike mitosis, meiosis results in the formation of haploid cells.
It can be concluded that Mitosis and Meiosis have similarities and differences. However,both Mitosis and Meiosis are both types of cell division and each begin with a duplicate set of chromosomes.
Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells whereas Meiosis results in four haploid daughter cells. The cells in meiosis are not identical due to crossing-over (exchange of chromosome segements) during the first phase .

the amount of chromosomes in a cell. meiosis is used in sexual reproduction and mitosis is just making more cells. chromosomes in a human after meiosis=24; mitosis=48.
Amitosis is nuclear division occurring without symmetry, and as such is a rather random type of division with without proper structure. Mitosis and Meiosis do differ in the number of daughter cells, mitosis with 2 and meiosis with 4. This, however, is also not a fair comparison, as mitosis and meiosis result in different types of cells.
Mitosis results in the formation of more somatic cells and meiosis creates haploid cells for gametophytic stage

haploid cells
Meiosis produces four haploid cells. Mitosis produces two diploid cells.
No, mitosis results in two, meiosis has a couple extra steps and results in 4 sex cells (half the chromosomes)
No - mitosis results in two genetically identical diploid cells.Meiosis creates four haploid cells.
