Answer: Mitosis

Explanation:

Since meiosis helps only in the production of gametes, mitosis helps the somatic cells in the already fertilized egg (zygote) to do the following:

- form new cells like red blood cells to transport oxygen, white blood cells to fight infection, liver cells etc

Thus, for growth mitosis is the mechanism used to generate more cells
