Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis occurs in somatic cells; this means that it takes place in all types of cells that are not involved in the production of gametes. Prior to each mitotic division, a copy of every chromosome is created; thus, following division, a complete set of chromosomes is found in the nucleus of each new cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -Final Answer: Meiosis takes place in the germ cells, while mitosis takes place in the somatic cells of the body.
