Answer 1

The scenario that depicts mitosis in action is:

A skin cell repairing itself after a cut.

Mitosis is the process of cell division where a single cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells, which is crucial for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction in multicellular organisms. In this case, skin cells divide to fill in the gap created by the cut.
