The process in which a parent cells splits into two genetically identical "daughter" cells is called mitosis. This process should not be confused with meiosis.

The answer is Mitosis.
Mitosis is a cell division process by which somatic cells reproduce.

In this process there is one division per cycle (with these steps:prophase, metaphase, anaphase e telophase, cytokinesis), one cell produces 2 new daughter cells and their genetic information is the same as the original cell ( the number of chromosomes is also the same)
