Question
mitosis: number of chromosomes in daughter cells
if a parent cell has 48 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have after mitosis and cytokinesis occurs?
multiple choice
96 chromosomes
48 chromosomes
24 chromosomes
12 chromosomes
Mitosis is a process of cell division where one cell divides to produce two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. This means the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is the same as in the parent cell. Since the parent cell has 48 chromosomes, each daughter cell will also have 48 chromosomes.
