Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Mitosis is defined as the division of the nucleus of parent cell into twonuclei
A
right
B
false
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In cell biology, mitosis (/maɪˈtoʊsɪs/) is a part of the cell cycle in which replicated chromosomes are separated into two new nuclei. Cell division by mitosis gives rise to genetically identical cells in which the total number of chromosomes is maintained. Therefore, mitosis is also known as equational division.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis is a process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that occurs when a parent cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells. During cell division, mitosis refers specifically to the separation of the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -(my-TOH-sis) The process by which a single parent cell divides to make two new daughter cells. Each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes from the parent cell. This process allows the body to grow and replace cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells developing from a single parent cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -Mitosis is the process of cell division wherein the chromosomes replicate and get equally distributed into two daughter cells. The chromosome number in each daughter cell is equal to that in the parent cell, i.e., diploid. Hence, mitosis is known as equational division.
