Unequal cell division that results in daughter cells of different sizes.

Type of cell division of stem cells resulting in one daughter cell identical to the original stem cell and another non-stem daughter cell. This type of cell differentiation is achieved by asymmetrical segregation of cell fate determinants (see CELL POLARITY) and orientation of the MITOTIC SPINDLE in the context of intrinsic and extrinsic cues (STEM CELL NICHE).
