Mitosis, the process by which the nucleus of a cell divides into two nuclei, is essential to life because it allows for the form
ation of new cells. Which of the following statements correctly describes the process of mitosis? A. Mitosis provides the energy required for the formation of new cells.
B. Mitosis controls the cell functions to ensure the successful development of new cells.
C. Mitosis results in the formation of two cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell.
D. Mitosis forms cells that are genetically different from the parent cell, resulting in an increase in genetic diversity.
Before reaching M phase in cell cycle ،in S phase the DNA replicates. So we have two double strands DNA like each other so when the cell enters mitosis. Two cell will produced which are geneticly simmilar to parent cell.
The zygote must contain genetic information from the mother and from the father, so the gametes must contain half of the chromosomes found in normal body cells.
