Cells can reproduce via mitosis or meiosis, and this process can occur in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Mitosis is a form of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells, while meiosis is a specialized form of cell division that produces gametes in sexually reproducing organisms. Eukaryotic cells, which include plants, animals, fungi, and protists, undergo mitosis or meiosis to reproduce, while prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria and archaea, can also undergo binary fission to reproduce asexually.
