Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mitosis is the process by which cells divide and form two identical daughter cells, each containing a full set of autosomes (chromosomes that do not determine an individual's sex). Mitosis does not involve recombination of genetic material or lend genetic diversity to a population. It is one of the most common ways in which cells form.
