Mitosis plays a key role in the growth and development of organisms, while replacing damaged cells. Following the division of the cytoplasm, what is the result of mitosis in terms of the daughter cells?

The two daughter cells are genetically unique.
The four daughter cells are genetically unique.
The two daughter cells are genetically identical.
The four daughter cells are genetically identical.

1 answer

The result of mitosis, following the division of the cytoplasm (cytokinesis), is that the two daughter cells are genetically identical to each other and to the original parent cell. Therefore, the correct answer is:

The two daughter cells are genetically identical.
