Question

question 2 1 pts which of the following statements about mitosis is incorrect? during telophase, chromosomes diffuse into loose threads of chromatin. mitosis is asexual reproduction in protista (such as an amoeba). during metaphase, chromosomes line up along the equator of the dividing cell. mitosis produces two identical daughter nuclei in prokaryotes (such as bacteria). during anaphase, chromosomes move to opposite poles.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Telophase: Chromosomes de - condense into chromatin (correct).
  • Protista (e.g., amoeba) use mitosis for asexual reproduction (correct).
  • Metaphase: Chromosomes align at the cell equator (correct).
  • Prokaryotes (e.g., bacteria) do not undergo mitosis. They reproduce via binary fission. Mitosis occurs in eukaryotes.
  • Anaphase: Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles (correct).

Answer:

Mitosis produces two identical daughter nuclei in prokaryotes (such as bacteria).
