Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In unicellular organisms, cell division is a significant process through which a unicellular organism develops into a new organism. In multicellular organisms, the process of cell division helps in maintaining a balance between DNA and RNA contents as well as the nuclear and cytoplasmic contents of the cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Germ cells, or gametes, undergo meiosis, while somatic cells will undergo mitosis. After the cell proceeds successfully through the M phase, it may then undergo cell division through cytokinesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Overview. Cells must divide repeatedly for an embryo to develop or for you to grow. Cells also divide in order to replace damaged or worn-out cells. Most cell division produces genetically identical cells, meaning they have the same DNA.
