Question

A human cell undergoes one cell division by mitosis. The number of chromosomes in each of the two daughter cells is:___________.

Answer 1

Answer:

Equal or same number of chromosomes as of parent cell

Explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division which divides the parent cell into two daughter cells with the exact or same number of chromosomes as of the parent cell.

Since the genetic material is distributed equally in the daughter cells therefore the mitosis is also known as equational division.

In the given question since the cell undergoes mitosis, therefore, the daughter cells will have the same or an equal number of chromosomes or ploidy level.

Thus, Equal or same number of chromosomes as of parent cell is the correct answer.
