Mitosis is important to living organisms as it is related to the growth and development of multicellular organisms.
- Mitosis, is a process of cell reproduction, during which one cell splits into two genetically identical daughter cells.
- Basically, it helps in the duplication and distribution of chromosomes (the structures that carry the genetic information).
- Mitosis is essential to living organisms because it provides them with new cells for growth and for the replacement of worn-out cells.
- It may take minutes or hours, depending upon the kind of cells going through the process and also the species of organisms. It is also dependent on the time of day, temperature, and chemicals.
