Question

A parent cell has six chromosomes.

Which statement describes the daughter cell(s) produced after this cell
undergoes the cell cycle and mitotic cell division?
OA. There will be two daughter cells, and each will have six
chromosomes.
OB. There will be one daughter cell, and it will have six chromosomes.
OC. There will be two daughter cells, and each will have three
chromosomes.
OD. There will be six daughter cells, and each will have one
chromosome.

Answer 1

During mitotic cell division, a parent cell with six chromosomes will produce two daughter cells, each with six chromosomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

During mitotic cell division, a parent cell produces two daughter cells. Each daughter cell will have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In this case, the parent cell has six chromosomes, so each daughter cell will also have six chromosomes.
