The goal of mitosis in a biology lab experiment conducted by Kai, Abigail, and Olivia is to

• make a new parent cell

• make two new daughter cells with the same DNA

• make two new daughter cells with different DNA

• to grow a larger toe

Answer explanation

Mitosis aims to produce two new daughter cells with identical DNA to the parent cell, ensuring genetic continuity and growth in multicellular organisms.

In a busy office, the photocopier is in interphase when it is

• multiplying copies

• warming up and preparing to copy documents

• destroying documents

• moving around the office

Answer explanation

In interphase, the cell is growing and copying DNA, preparing for cell division. This process involves the cell increasing in size and duplicating its genetic material.
