CHROMOSOMES AND CELL DIVISIONS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process by which a cell nucleus divides is called:
A
interphase
B
mitosis
C
cytokinesis
D
cell cycle
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: -Karyokinesis is defined as the division of the nucleus during the M phase of the cell cycle. It is the first step in the M phase. This process does not depend on cytokinesis. It divides the genetic material equally. The daughter chromosome is separated into two daughter nuclei.

Detailed explanation-3: -Definition. 00:00. … Mitosis is the process by which a cell replicates its chromosomes and then segregates them, producing two identical nuclei in preparation for cell division. Mitosis is generally followed by equal division of the cell’s content into two daughter cells that have identical genomes.
