Cell division is a mean of reproduction for those organisms that have not evolved sexual reproduction or have no use for sex.

After the cell grows to its full it divides. These cells after division are called daughter cells. And this process is called cell division. It occurs for the growth of our body and to repair worn out or damaged cells.
