A scientific theory is based on thorough observation and experimental evidence. Before the 1950s, genetic material was believed to be stored in proteins. However, in 1952, scientists experimentally proved that genetic materials are instead stored in nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA. All the previous scientific knowledge about genes was still included in the new DNA gene theory, it was just modified to include that genes are coded by DNA and not proteins.

Which of the following is true?

A scientific theory can never be changed because scientists know everything.

Scientific theories are often modified but are rarely discarded.

Scientific theories are always completely discarded when new research is done.

kari74 [83]

Answer: 2. the production of new body cells to replace old cells

Mitosis is a form of cell division that results in two daughter cells that are identical (genetically) to each other and to its original cell. It plays a vital role in the life cycle of most living things.

In single-celled (unicellular) organisms such as bacteria, mitosis is a type of asexual reproduction, making identical copies of a single cell.

In multicellular organisms, mitosis produces new cells to replace old cells and promote growth and repair.
