Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in the genetic material being equally divided among two daughter cells. This process occurs during the cell cycle and is important for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction. It does not create genetic diversity, as it results in genetically identical cells. Sex cells are formed through meiosis, not mitosis.
