Answer:

Limits platelets population.

Explanation:

The result of this  modified cell cycle would be the presence of limited population of this cell because no mitosis occurs in these cells. Mitosis is a type of cell division that increases population of the cells. These megakaryocytes are changed into platelets by releasing protoplatelets that break up into a number of smaller and functional platelets. These platelets skip mitosis and cytokinesis process which limits their population in the body.
