At the end of the cell cycle cells produce two daughter cells from one parent cell. Growth is achieved through the addition of new cells by mitosis and cell division. As daughter cells form, an organism grows in size. Which statement most likely describes the daughter cells produced by mitosis?

The daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cell.
The daughter cells are genetically different from the parent cell.
The daughter cells are smaller in size than the parent cell.
The daughter cells are larger in size than the parent cell.
