measles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Most of the time when people refer to “cell division, ” they mean mitosis, the process of making new body cells. Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells. Mitosis is a fundamental process for life.

Detailed explanation-2: -The daughter cells from mitosis are called diploid cells. Diploid cells have two complete sets of chromosomes. Since the daughter cells have exact copies of their parent cell’s DNA, no genetic diversity is created through mitosis in normal healthy cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis is a means of asexual reproduction, whereas meiosis is necessary for sexual reproduction.

Detailed explanation-4: -When a cell reproduces by mitosis and cytoplasmic division, its life does not end. During mitosis, a parent cell undergoes growth and replication of its genetic material to therefore be able to create two identical daughter cells. As a result, the process of mitosis brings about a reproduction of cells, not a death.

Detailed explanation-5: -Prophase. Mitosis begins with prophase, during which chromosomes recruit condensin and begin to undergo a condensation process that will continue until metaphase.
