Mitosis is a part of the cell cycle that occurs in somatic (body) cells for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction. However, it does not occur in gametes (sex cells) such as sperm and egg cells, as these cells are produced through meiosis, a different form of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half.
Thus, the correct answer to your question is that mitosis does not occur in gametes.
