The process that includes mitosis and is used by both plants and animals to grow is called cell division. Here are the steps involved:

1. Interphase: This is the phase where the cell prepares for division by replicating its DNA and centrioles.

2. Prophase: The chromosomes condense and become visible, and the nuclear envelope breaks down.

3. Metaphase: The chromosomes align in the middle of the cell, and the spindle fibers attach to the centromeres of each chromosome.

4. Anaphase: The sister chromatids separate and move towards opposite ends of the cell.

5. Telophase: A new nuclear envelope forms around each set of chromosomes.

6. Cytokinesis: The cytoplasm divides, creating two new cells, each with a complete set of chromosomes.

This process allows for growth, repair, and renewal in both plants and animals.
