Answer:

Mitosis is important for three main reasons: development and growth cell replacement and asexual reproduction.

Explanation:

Cells divide for two reasons:

Growth. We all started out as a single cell; the fusion of a sperm from dad and an egg from mom.

Repair. Cells are constantly wearing out and getting damaged, and unless an organism replaces them at least as fast as they are lost, a gradual deterioration will occur.

Functions of cell division:

Reproduction and generation of a new progeny.

Growth factors for overall growth and proliferation of the organism. It is also required for the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues and organs.

Formation of gametes to pass the hereditary information to the next generation.

Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells. Mitosis is a fundamental process for life. During mitosis, a cell duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells.

Both haploid and diploid cells can undergo mitosis. When a haploid cell undergoes mitosis, it produces two genetically identical haploid daughter cells; when a diploid cell undergoes mitosis, it produces two genetically identical diploid daughter cells.
