Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Mitosis results in ____
A
2 identical diploid cells
B
2 unique haploid cells
C
4 unique diploid cells
D
4 identical haploid cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Both haploid and diploid cells can undergo mitosis. When a haploid cell undergoes mitosis, it produces two genetically identical haploid daughter cells; when a diploid cell undergoes mitosis, it produces two genetically identical diploid daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The concept of mitosis The purpose of mitosis is to make more diploid cells. It works by copying each chromosome, and then separating the copies to different sides of the cell. That way, when the cell divides down the middle, each new cell gets its own copy of each chromosome.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis is the process by which most cells in the body divide, involves a single round of cell division, and produces two identical, diploid daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Answer and Explanation: Mitosis results in two diploid cells, while meiosis results in four haploid cells. Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells. Each cell contains the same amount of DNA as the starting parent cell.
