CELL DIVISION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The cell cycle produces two identical ____
A
daughter cells
B
strands
C
chromosomes
D
chromatids
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -In mitosis a cell divides to form two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -The daughter cells from mitosis are called diploid cells. Diploid cells have two complete sets of chromosomes. Since the daughter cells have exact copies of their parent cell’s DNA, no genetic diversity is created through mitosis in normal healthy cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitosis is a type of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells from a single diploid cell. Mitosis occurs in nearly every cell in the human body. It is essential for our body’s growth, development and repair.

Detailed explanation-5: -Each daughter cell has half the number of chromosomes as compared to their parents (one copy of each chromosome). The resulting cells from meiosis are not genetically identical because of the recombination of genes that occurred during prophase 1.
