The correct answer is **A. To make more body cells like skin cells or liver cells for example.**
Mitosis is the process by which a cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells, allowing for growth and repair of tissues in multicellular organisms. Gametes are produced through a different process called meiosis, not mitosis. The suggestion that organisms do mitosis "just for fun" is not scientifically accurate.
