Question
what is the outcome of a cell going through one cycle of mitosis?
o one daughter cell with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell
two daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell
o one daughter cell with the same number and type of chromosomes as the parent cell
two daughter cells with the same number and type of chromosomes as the parent cell
Mitosis is a process of cell division. In mitosis, one cell divides into two daughter cells. The key characteristic is that the daughter cells have the same number and type of chromosomes as the parent cell. This is in contrast to meiosis (where chromosome number is halved). So, after one cycle of mitosis, there are two daughter cells with the same chromosome complement as the parent cell.
