Question
Mitosis_______.
- Results in reduction of chromosome numbers.
- Results in doubling the number of chromosomes.
- Results in the same number of chromosomes.
- Results in no change in chromosome numbers.
Hint:
Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells which resembles the parent cell.
The correct answer is: Results in the same number of chromosomes.
- Mitosis is the cell division that occurs in body or somatic cells
- Following mitosis, the two daughter cells are identical to the parents cell
- The number of chromosomes inherited by the daughter cells remain the same
- If the parent cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes, after mitosis, each of the two daughter cells will also have 23 pairs of chromosomes
- Reduction in number of chromosomes by half occurs during meiosis, where gametes are formed
