What is asexual splitting?

Splitting the cells


Are four haploid daughter cells quantitatively and qualitatively different from the mother cell during meiosis or mitosis?

Well mitosis is the splitting of somatic cells (body cells), and meiosis is the splitting of the sex cells, so if we are talking about the mother's cells splitting in preparation for fertilization, than it would be meiosis.


Do cells have babies?

Cells do not have babies, since they are only single entities. What they do is called fission, splitting themselves into two equals. This cell division is how multi-celled organisms grow.
