उत्तर
Mitosis is characterised by equal division.
Explanation:
Mitosis is the most dramatic period of the cell cycle, involving a major reorganisation of virtually all components of the cell. Since the number of chromosomes in the parent and progeny cells is the same, it is also called as equational division.
