Select the BEST summary of mitosis below.
Mitosis is the process of cell division in which a single cell divides into three daughter cells.
Mitosis is the process of cell division in which a single cell divides into four non-identical daughter cells.
Mitosis is the process of cell division in which a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells.
Mitosis is the process of cell division in ten cells divides into five daughter cells.
Before division, which part of the cell are the chromosome found?
the nucleus
