Question

after mitosis and cytokinesis are complete, which of the following are true?
a. 4 genetically different daughter cells have been produced.
b. 4 genetically identical daughter cells have been produced.
c. 2 genetically different daughter cells have been produced.
d. 2 genetically identical daughter cells have been produced.

Explanation:

Mitosis is a process of cell division where one cell divides to form two daughter cells. During mitosis, the genetic material (DNA) is replicated and then equally distributed between the two daughter cells. Cytokinesis is the final step of cell division where the cytoplasm of the parent cell is divided between the two daughter cells. So, after mitosis and cytokinesis, two daughter cells are produced. And these two daughter cells are genetically identical to each other and also to the parent cell because the DNA replication and distribution is accurate (barring any mutations which are rare in normal mitosis).

Answer:

D. 2 genetically identical daughter cells have been produced.
