Mitosis is the process of nuclear division in somatic cells, producing two identical daughter cells. It ensures growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues while also maintaining the chromosome number in a species. This process is explained in detail in the NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 10 Notes Cell Cycle and Cell Division.
