Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
An ordered sequence of events in the life of a cell. Creates two identical daughter cells.
A
interphase
B
mitosis
C
chromatin
D
cell cycle
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis. The mitotic phase (also known as M phase) is a multistep process during which the duplicated chromosomes are aligned, separated, and move into two new, identical daughter cells. The first portion of the mitotic phase is called karyokinesis, or nuclear division.

Detailed explanation-2: -In mitosis a cell divides to form two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -The daughter cells from mitosis are called diploid cells. Diploid cells have two complete sets of chromosomes. Since the daughter cells have exact copies of their parent cell’s DNA, no genetic diversity is created through mitosis in normal healthy cells.
