Question

After a cell division each daughter cell has

Answer 1

The Answer Is 2 Parent Cells

Answer 2

Answer: Daughter cells have the same amount of DNA as the parent cell and a higher surface area/volume ratio than the parent cell.

Explanation:

Cell division is the process by which a cells divide to create two daughter cells. The surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. So the cell has to die or split into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios. But as cells increase in size, the surface area and volume do not increase proportionally to length. So when a cell increases its diameter, surface area to volume ratio decreases, and this relationship restricts the size of cells.

An example of cell division is mitosis. It involves doubling the DNA and dividing the nucleus into two, so that each daughter cell created receives the same amount of DNA as the mother cell.
