Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis creates identical copies of cells. For example, it creates new skin cells to replace dead skin cells. Gametes are the cells needed for reproduction.
Detailed explanation-2: -The daughter cells from mitosis are called diploid cells. Diploid cells have two complete sets of chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis results in two cells that are identical. This occurs in somatic cells and creates daughter cells with a full set of chromosomes. So, 2 diploid somatic cells (that are exact copies of the parent cell) result from mitosis.
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.
