Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells. There are two main types: mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells for growth and repair, while meiosis produces four genetically different cells (gametes) for sexual reproduction. The process includes phases like prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, each involving specific changes to chromosomes and cell structure.
