What is the differnce between mitosis and asexual reproduction?

There are four phases of the cell cycle in mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Asexual reproduction does not go through all of these phases.

Only the somatic cells of higher organisms undergo mitosis; lower single-celled organisms reproduce asexually.

Genetic material does not condense during asexual reproduction; instead, it condenses during mitosis to form chromosomes.

Mitosis is a process of cell division that occurs in somatic cells, resulting in two daughter cells with identical genetic information as the parent cell. Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction where offspring arise from a single organism and inherit the genetic material from that parent only, without the fusion of gametes. Mitosis is a cellular process, whereas asexual reproduction is a method of producing offspring at the organismal level.
