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: -When cells become damaged or die the body makes new cells to replace them. This process is called cell division. One cell doubles by dividing into two. Two cells become four and so on.
Detailed explanation-3: -The cell undergoes a type of cell division called mitosis . In mitosis, two cells called daughter cells are produced, each identical to the parent cell.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cell growth refers to the increase in cell size (mass accumulation) while cell division describes the division of a mother cell into two daughter cells (1->2->4->8, etc.). Cell proliferation is the process of generating an increased number of cells through cell division.
Detailed explanation-5: -Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells (cell division).
