Mitosis is the division of cells. All the cellular contents get dived up between the two daughter cells, and the DNA is duplicated and then separated into both cells, so that both daughter cells have identical copies of DNA. This is different from meiosis which is how gametes (sex cells - sperm and eggs) divide.
