The self-renewing division of a somatic stem cell, a stem cell that can give rise to cell types of the body other than those of the germ-line. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. The self-renewing division of a stem cell. A stem cell is an undifferentiated cell, in the embryo or adult, that can undergo unlimited division and give rise to one or several different cell types. The self-renewing division of a germline stem cell to produce a daughter stem cell and a daughter germ cell, which will divide to form the gametes. The process resulting in the physical partitioning and separation of a cell into daughter cells.
