Mitosis: cell starts with a complete set of DNA, makes a copy, and then splits into two cells, each with a complete set of DNA. Those daughter cells then function as normal body cells.

Meiosis: cell starts with a complete set of DNA, makes a copy, and then splits into 4 cells, each with a half-set of DNA. Those daughter cells are now sex cells that will merge with another sex cell to create a new individual.
