Mitosis is the process by which eukaryotic cells

Mitosis occurs in

Anastral mitosis is the characteristic feature of

A cell weighing $1\mathrm{mg}$ grows to double its initial mass before dividing into two daughter cells of equal mass. Assuming no death, at the end of 100 divisions what will be the ratio of the mass of the entire population of these cells to that of the mass of the Earth? Assume that mass of the earth is ${10}^{24} \mathrm{kg}$ and $2^{10}$ is approximately equal to 1000.

Mitosis occurs only in multicellular organisms.
