Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
After cell division, the new cells are referred to as:
A
Brother cells
B
Twin cells
C
Daughter cells
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more cells called daughter cells. Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle. All cells reproduce by dividing into two, with each parental cell giving rise to two daughter cells every time they divide.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The offspring cells resulting from cell division are called daughter cells due to the fact that once a mother cell divides into two new cells, those offspring will also be able to divide in the future.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The name given to new cells created at the end of cell division is daughter cells. At the end of cell division, the parent cell (dividing cell) will undergo each of the mitotic stages in order to produce two genetically identical (containing the same DNA as the parent cell) daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -In mitosis, the important thing to remember is that the daughter cells each have the same chromosomes and DNA as the parent cell. The daughter cells from mitosis are called diploid cells. Diploid cells have two complete sets of chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-5: -At the conclusion of meiosis, there are four haploid daughter cells that go on to develop into either sperm or egg cells.
