Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells (cell division). During mitosis one cell? divides once to form two identical cells. The major purpose of mitosis is for growth and to replace worn out cells.

The purpose of mitosis is cell regeneration, or the production of new cells.

The purpose of Meiosis is to convert diploids into haploids.
