Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells from a single parent cell.
Recognize that for mitosis to occur properly, each daughter cell must receive an exact copy of the parent cell's DNA.
Identify that DNA replication is the process by which a cell duplicates its DNA, ensuring that each new cell has the same genetic information.
Acknowledge that DNA replication occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle, which precedes mitosis.
Conclude that DNA replication is essential before mitosis to ensure that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes.
