Its Mitosis

Mitosis is simply cloning the parent cell. Asexual reproduction uses mitosis to duplicate the cell.

Meiosis is the process by which a diploid cell is reduced into haploid cells.For sexual reproduction two haploid cell join together to form a diploid cell and then the diploid cell uses mitosis to multiply and create an organism.
