The best answer is: have limitations.
Scientific models are simplifications of reality that help us understand and predict phenomena. They are based on available data and assumptions and, therefore, have inherent limitations.

The best response is: It does not show all phases of mitosis.
Diagrams of mitosis typically depict a simplified version of the process, and stating that it does not show all phases highlights a common limitation in such representations. Each phase of mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase) has distinct characteristics that may not be fully captured in a single diagram.

A pictorial-only model may show detailed images of the different phases of mitosis, but without accompanying explanations or annotations, it can fall short of conveying the underlying processes, mechanisms, and functions involved in mitosis.

The correct response is: G2.
Mitosis occurs after the G2 phase in the cell cycle. The typical order of the cell cycle is G1 → S → G2 → M (mitosis).

The best response is: A model with all four phases of mitosis in order, showing the chromosomes inside.
This model would provide the most accurate representation of the mitosis process, as it illustrates both the stages and the critical changes occurring within the chromosomes throughout mitosis.
