Which of the following happens when a cell divides?
A
Each daughter cell receives its own copy of the parent cell’s DNA.
B
The cell has DNA overload.
C
It becomes more difficult for the cell to get enough oxygen and nutrients.
D
The cell’s volume increases.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Mitosis is used to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cells. The cell copies-or ‘replicates’-its chromosomes, and then splits the copied chromosomes equally to make sure that each daughter cell has a full set.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -When a cell divides, the outer membrane increasingly pinches inward until the new cells that are forming separate from each other. This process typically produces two new (daughter) cells from one (parent) cell. During cell division, the contents of the parent cell are copied and divided between the two daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Which of the following happens when a cell divides? Each daughter cell receives it’s own copy of the parent cell’s DNA.
