Answer:
Mitosis yields TWO daughter cells that are genetically IDENTICAL and that have THE SAME number of chromosomes compared to the parent cell.
Explanation:
Mitosis is one of the two types of cell divisions. Mitosis produces two daughter cells from one parent cell. The daughter cells formed by mitosis genetically identical to the parent cell which means that the daughter cells have the same amount of DNA and the same number of chromosomes as that of the parent cell.
Since mitosis does not include crossing over, the gene combinations present on the chromosomes of the daughter cells are also identical to that of the parent cells. Therefore, when a parent cell with 2n DNA and 46 chromosomes enters mitosis, two daughter cells each with 2n DNA and 46 chromosomes are formed.
