Detailed explanation-1: -The daughter cells from mitosis are called diploid cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The product of mitosis in a single human skin cell is two human skin cells. Because mitosis involves the division of the cell into two genetically identical daughter cells, any skin cell or other non-sexual cell in humans as well as other organisms results in two identical cells following a complete mitotic cycle.

Detailed explanation-3: -The skin cells go through mitosis to replace dead ones. In order to create haploid gametes, meiosis takes place in the germ cells. Meiosis occurs in germ cells while mitosis occurs in somatic cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitosis is important to multicellular organisms because it provides new cells for growth and for replacement of worn-out cells, such as skin cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -The stratum basale, which is a row of columnar cells resting on the basal lamina that separates the epidermis from the dermis. Mitosis occurs exclusively at the basal cell layer and allows for the replacement of cells lost from the surface.
