    Mitosis: The chromosome number remains constant (46 total chromosomes or 23 pairs of chromosomes).

    Meiosis: At first the cells have the same number of chromosomes as mitosis. DNA replication occurs, giving a total of 46 chromosomes (or 23 chromosome pairs) and 92 chromatids (or 46 chromatid pairs).
