The correct characteristic of mitosis is:
Results in two identical daughter cells.
Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells, maintaining the same chromosome number as the original cell.

The correct answer is:
Metaphase.
During metaphase, the chromosomes align along the cell's equator, also known as the metaphase plate.

The process that is NOT a part of interphase is:
Mitosis.
Interphase includes the G1 phase, S phase, and G2 phase, but mitosis is a separate phase that follows interphase.

The correct answer is:
cells become specialized in structure and function.
Cell differentiation is the process by which unspecialized cells develop into specialized cells with distinct structures and functions.
Which of the following is a characteristic of stem cells?(1 point)
Responses
They have limited ability to differentiate
They have limited ability to differentiate
They are fully differentiated cells
They are fully differentiated cells
They cannot undergo mitosis
They cannot undergo mitosis
They can divide and renew themselves
Responses

They cannot undergo mitosis
They can divide and renew themselves
The correct answer is:
They can divide and renew themselves.
Stem cells have the ability to undergo mitosis and can differentiate into various specialized cell types, making them unique in their capacity for self-renewal and differentiation.
