Answer: 104

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitosis is a part of cell division which takes place in the all the eukaryotic organism. The cells in this process undergoes cell division the mother cell divides into two identical daughter cells whose chromosome number is restored.

The whole process includes many steps one after the another. These stages are named as prophase, prometaphase, anaphase, telophase and metaphase.

After the whole process, the number of chromosomes will remain the same.
