Answer:

The correct answer will be two daughter cell with same genetic material are produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which a single cell divides to form two identical cells.The duration of mitosis phase is short and lasts for only one hour of cell cycle.

Mitosis phase is divided into two stages namely- karyokinesis where genetic material divides followed by cytokinesis where cell division takes place.

This is also called as equational division as same genetic material with equal number of chromosomes or ploidy is distributed among the newly formed daughter cells.

Thus, two daughter cell with same genetic material are produced during mitosis.
