Accepted Answer

Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in the production of two genetically identical daughter cells. This is achieved through a series of stages, including the separation of replicated chromosomes and the division of the cell's cytoplasm. Mitosis is important for growth, development, and tissue repair in multicellular organisms.
