Scelta multipla
In eukaryotic cells, the overall purpose of mitosis is to produce which of the following?
A
Two genetically distinct daughter cells with new combinations of alleles generated by crossing over
B
Two genetically identical daughter cells with the same chromosome number as the parent cell
C
One diploid cell and one haploid cell due to unequal chromosome segregation
D
Four genetically distinct haploid cells with half the chromosome number of the parent cell
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Step 1: Understand the purpose of mitosis in eukaryotic cells. Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells.
Step 2: Recall that mitosis produces daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell, maintaining the same chromosome number.
Step 3: Differentiate mitosis from meiosis, where meiosis produces genetically distinct haploid cells with half the chromosome number.
Step 4: Recognize that crossing over and new allele combinations occur during meiosis, not mitosis.
Step 5: Conclude that mitosis results in two genetically identical daughter cells with the same chromosome number as the parent cell.
