Ah interesting question. As you may know mitosis is the division of somatic (non-sex) cells. Mitosis is needed to build up the bulk of cells that make us up. Upon fertilization of the embryo we are all just one cell. To become a huge living organism that we all are we have to build up bulk. Mitosis is your body's way of doing just that. Upon fertilization that one cells divides and divides and keeps dividing until billions of individual cells are made. These cells are not just loosely floating around in the womb. They stay adhered to one another with proteins that are being made at the same time cells are dividing.
Its this adhesion to each other that creates the basic premiss for our organs and tissues. All organs or tissue really are, are a bunch of common cells stuck together to create an overall unified function. The cells in your liver for example all function with one goal in mind, to be liver cells. They are distinct from brain cells in that they do what livers do and not brains. This sounds overly simple but that is the jist of it.
So mitosis allows for the division and thus "bulking" of many cells into unified masses called organs and tissues. All those many cells that exist in the organs would not exist if first they didn't come from a previously dividing cell, that gave rise to more dividing cells, etc.
After Mitosis, the result is 2 new, identical, daughter cells. In order for each to be identical, the chromosomes must be copied.
Mitosis ensure that a new cell is identical to its parents by their copy of the parent's genome in mitosis. Identical genetic information will result in identical cells.
Yes it is a phase of mitosis. It the the phase in thich the chromosomes duplicate. As a result each chromosome ha 2 sister chromatids
If the final result is two diploid cells, it indicates that the process is mitosis. Mitosis results in two genetically identical diploid daughter cells from a single diploid parent cell. In contrast, meiosis produces four haploid cells, which are genetically diverse and have half the chromosome number of the parent cell. Therefore, the correct answer is mitosis.
Both result in a replica ( clone) of the original cell.
The result of mitosis is two identical daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Mitosis is a process of cell division that occurs in somatic cells to ensure growth, repair, and maintenance of the organism.
The 4 steps are prophase,metaphase,anaphase, and telophase. The end result for mitosis is telophase, but if you are talking about the cell cycle it would be cytokinesis.
Because they both result in the formantion of gametes; however there is no genetic variation in meiosis.
no, but your face does

The 'processes' that are known as, and result in, Mitosis.
Mitosis or cell division?
Multiplication of somatic cells
after the cell goes through mitosis, two new daughter cells are formed and then they enter interphase.
After Mitosis, the result is 2 new, identical, daughter cells. In order for each to be identical, the chromosomes must be copied.
