Which describes the inputs and outputs of mitosis?

Question

1.
Input: stem cell in the growth phase.
Output: Specialized cell, like neurons.
2.
Input: Genetic material as DNA
Output: Diverse cell types arising from differentiation after division.
3.
Input: Chromosomes lined up at the metaphase plate.
Output: Cells performing different functions.
4.
Input: A single cell ready to divide.
Output: Two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell and each other.

Answer 1

The option that best describes the inputs and outputs of mitosis is:

4. Input: A single cell ready to divide. Output: Two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell and each other.

Mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells from a single parent cell. The other options describe processes related to differentiation or other aspects of cell development rather than the specific process of mitosis itself.
