If a cell with 12 chromosomes undergoes mitosis, how many daughter cells result and what is the chromosome number in each daughter cell? 2 cells, 6 chromosomes each 4 cells, 6 chromosomes each 2 cells, 12 chromosomes each 4 cells, 12 chromosomes each

Mitosis is a kind of cell division that produces 2 daughter cells that is genetically identical to both the other daughter and the parent cell.

By the word genetically identical, it means that they have the same number of chromosomes.

This process starts by a parent cell doubling their chromosomes, then, it divides, and therefore each daughter cells receive the original number of chromosomes.

Therefore, the answer to this question is 2 cells, 12 chromosomes each.
