A
two chromosomes
B
four chromosomes
C
eight chromosomes
D
sixteen chromosomes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -During normal mitotic cell division a parent cell that has four chromosomes will produce two daughter cells each containing 0.00 / 0.26 two chromosomes four chromosomes eight chromosomes. This is a modal window.

Detailed explanation-3: -So, the daughter cells formed during mitosis have the same number of chromosomes as the mother and are also identical to the parent cell. During meiosis four haploid daughter cells are produced, each having half the number of chromosomes as that of the mother cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -It’s the same as its mother cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -Mitosis is a fundamental process for life. During mitosis, a cell duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells.
