Answer:Mitosis plays a vital role in an organism's growth.

Explanation:During reproduction, new organisms are created. Sometimes, the new organisms are created asexually through processes like binary fission, budding, or fragmentation. In other cases, new organisms are created sexually when a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell.

Growth is different from reproduction. When an organism grows, it creates more of its own cells through the process of mitosis. No new organisms are created during growth, however.
