  • Cell Division: Mitosis & Meiosis Explained - Types & Processes
    The process cells use to divide is called cell division.

    However, there are two main types of cell division:

    * Mitosis: This is the process of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells from a single parent cell. This is used for growth and repair.

    * Meiosis: This is the process of cell division that produces four daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. This is used for sexual reproduction.

    So, depending on the specific type of cell division you are referring to, the answer could be either mitosis or meiosis.
