How many daughter cells does one mitotic division produce?
A.2
B.4
C.1
D.8
Explanation
Core Concept
One mitotic division followed by cytokinesis typically produces two daughter cells. Meiosis consists of two successive divisions and can generate four haploid products from one diploid precursor, but those products are not always four equivalent functional gametes; for example, mammalian oogenesis produces one large ovum and polar bodies.
