Which best describes the importance of mitosis to living organisms? genetic variation and growth growth and development development and sexual reproduction sexual reproduction and genetic variation

The correct answer is growth and development.

Mitosis is a form of cell division in which one cell divides into two identical daughter cells ( with same genetic component as parent cell). It helps in the growth and development of living organisms. It also helps in the repair of damaged tissue through cellular divisions.

It is a type of asexual reproduction in single celled organisms ( like bacteria). It does not create any genetic variation as no recombination ( like meiosis) between chromosomes takes place in mitosis.

Thus, the best option that describes mitosis is growth and development
