Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand that mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells, each having the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Recall that the purpose of mitosis is to produce genetically identical cells for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction.
Note that the parent cell in this problem has 20 chromosomes.
During mitosis, the chromosomes are duplicated and then evenly divided between the two daughter cells.
Conclude that each daughter cell will have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell, which is 20 chromosomes.
