The division that results in daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell is meiosis. This process is crucial for sexual reproduction and leads to the production of gametes (sperm and egg cells). In contrast, mitosis results in daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell and is important for growth and repair.
