Detailed explanation-1: -In eukaryotes, the process of division of a somatic parent cell into two daughter cells is known as mitosis. During the M or mitosis phase of a cell cycle, the chromosomes present in the nucleus are separated into two identical sets, which eventually form two daughter nuclei. This is followed by cytokinesis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis is used to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cells. The cell copies-or ‘replicates’-its chromosomes, and then splits the copied chromosomes equally to make sure that each daughter cell has a full set.
Detailed explanation-3: -The chromosome number in each daughter cell is equal to that in the parent cell, i.e., diploid. Hence, mitosis is known as equational division.
