When cells divide, they make new cells. A single cell divides to make two cells and these two cells then divide to make four cells, and so on. We call this process cell division and cell reproduction, because new cells are formed when old cells divide. The ability of cells to divide is unique for living organisms.
Cell division of a single-celled organism, known as binary fission for prokaryotes and mitosis for eukaryotes, is for reproductive purposes only. Cell division of multicelluar organisms can occur for a couple different reasons. Mitosis produces somatic cells, or cells other than gametes, and occurs for growth or to replace older cells.
