Explanation:

Question 1

Cytokinesis is the process of dividing the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells. The nucleus divides during mitosis, chromosomes are structures within the nucleus, and organelles are distributed but not the main focus of cytokinesis. So the correct answer is a.

Mitosis is a cell division process that results in two genetically identical daughter cells. Meiosis produces 4 cells, and 1 or 3 are not typical results of mitosis. So the correct answer is c.

Mitosis produces daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. They are diploid (not haploid, which is from meiosis), not different, and functional. So the correct answer is c.

Answer:

a. Cytoplasm (yellow)
