Introduction to Mitosis and Meiosis

The diagram below represents a cell process. Which statement regarding this process is correct?

• Cell B contains the same genetic information that cells A and C contain.
• Cell C has DNA that is only 50% identical to cell B.
• Cell A has DNA that is only 75% identical to cell B.
• Cells A, B, and C contain completely different genetic information.
