Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the end product of Mitosis?
A
One daughter cell
B
Two identical daughter cells
C
Two different daughter cells
D
Three identical daughter cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The daughter cells will get the same number and same kind of chromosome as the parent cell. The purpose of mitosis is for cell growth and to replace damaged cells. So, the end result of Mitosis is two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, whereas meiosis results in four sex cells. Below we highlight the keys differences and similarities between the two types of cell division.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell. In contrast, meiosis gives rise to four unique daughter cells, each of which has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Anaphase is the fourth phase of mitosis, the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -At the end of mitosis, the two daughter cells will be exact copies of the original cell. Each daughter cell will have 30 chromosomes.
