Mitosis creates specialized cells for different purposes.
Genetically identical cells undergo differentiation to alter gene expression.
The correct response is:
Genetically identical cells undergo differentiation to alter gene expression.
During differentiation, cells express different sets of genes, leading to the development of specialized functions and characteristics, despite being genetically identical.

The correct response is:
Cells rush to the damaged area, proliferate through mitosis, and work to repair the injury.
When a complex organism is injured, cells respond by proliferating (dividing) through mitosis to help repair the injured tissue.
