If i could go back in time and tell myself the difference of mitosis and meiosis. One difference is, mitosis is diploid, which is 100% chromosomes and meiosis is haploid, which is 50% or 1/2 chromosomes. The diploid has twice as many chromosomes as the haploid. Thing that are similar are the phases. The phases for mitosis are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. The phases for meiosis are prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, and telophase II.
An experiment I think would be helpful would be practicing looking at cells and finding out which one is a mitosis cell and which one is a meiosis.
