The cell division process that produces new cells for growth, repair, and the general replacement of older cells is called mitosis. In this process, a somatic cell divides into two complete new cells that are identical to the original one.
I. Cell Division . Life is based on the ability of cells to reproduce, or make copies of themselves. This is done by a process called cell division = one cell divides into two cells. For one-celled organisms, cell division = reproduction; each cell division not only produces a new cell, it also produces a new organism (bacteria, protists). For multicellular organisms (like us) cell division allows an organism to grow and develop from a single cell to trillions of cells, and also to repair and replace cells.
