Question

task 8: read the passage below and then answer the question that follows.
passage:
when cells divide, they can produce new cells that are either identical or different from the original. in some processes, the new cells have the exact same genetic information as the parent cell. in others, the new cells have only half the number of chromosomes or a mix of genetic material from two parents.
question:
how do the “daughter” cells produced by mitosis compare to their parent cells?
“daughter “ cells produced....

Explanation:

Mitosis is a cell - division process. In mitosis, the genetic material (DNA) is replicated. Then, the replicated DNA is equally distributed to the two daughter cells. So, the daughter cells have the same genetic information as the parent cell.

Answer:

“Daughter” cells produced by mitosis have the exact same genetic information as their parent cells.
