Solution

In cell biology, mitosis is a part of the cell cycle when replicated chromosomes are separated into two new nuclei. Cell division gives rise to genetically identical cells in which the number of chromosomes is maintained. The daughter cells is an exact copy of the parent cell and hence the number of chromosomes also remains the same.
So, the correct answer is 'Mitosis'.
