The mitosis can be defined as the cellular replication process., which results in the formation of the two daughter cells that have the same number of the chromosomes as the parent cell. It is the process of regeneration of the cell, when the parent cell is cloned into two new cells. When it is performed without any interruption, this process can result in cellular immortality as the cells will be constantly renewed.
