Mitosis is not a process for
A
growth
B
repair
C
sexual reproduction
D
asexual reproduction
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis is a phase of the cell cycle in which a cell’s nucleus is divided into two nuclei, each with an equal quantity of genetic material. It is an asexual reproductive process that occurs in unicellular organisms. Thus, mitosis is a type of cell division that occurs during the asexual reproduction process.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis and meiosis both involve cells dividing to make new cells. This makes them both vital processes for the existence of living things that reproduce sexually. Meiosis makes the cells needed for sexual reproduction to occur, and mitosis replicates non-sex cells needed for growth and development.

Detailed explanation-3: -A mitosis is a form of asexual reproduction as the result of the cell cycle is two identical cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Asexual reproduction uses the process of mitosis to create the identical copies (clones) of the parent cell. It therefore leads to offspring that show no genetic variation.
