Which statement correctly describes mitotic cell division?

• The chromosome number in the daughter

  cells is reduced by half.

• The fusion of nuclei restores the diploidnumber.

• Two cellular divisions result in the production

  of four monoploid cells.

• Chromosomes are replicated and two identical daughter nuclei are formed.

If an organism reproduces asexually, its offspring will most likely be

• genetically different from each other

• produced from specialized cells known as gametes

• genetically identical to the parent

• produced as a result of fertilization

Base your answer on Which process is represented by the series of diagrams below?

• gametogenesis

• fertilization

• mitotic cell division

• meiotic cell division

One difference between cell division in plant cells and in animal cells is that

• plants form a cell plate between daughter cells but animals do not

• more cytoplasm forms in animal cells than in plant cells

• centrioles form in plant cells but not in animal cells

• a double nucleus forms in animal cells but not in plant cells
