Mitosis is common to all eukaryotes; during this process, a parent cell splits into two genetically identical daughter cells, each of which contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. ... During meiosis, the cells needed for sexual reproduction divide to produce new cells called gametes.

hope this helped :)

Well some cells divide by a conjugation tube, usually, in Eukaryotes. which is when they create a tube from one cell to the other and exchange DNA.
