will be in each cell?
(A) There will be four cells each with 36 chromosomes.
(B) There will be two cells each with 36 chromosomes.
(C
There will be four cells each with 18 chromosomes.
D
There will be two cells each with 18 chromosomes.

Answer 1

Answer:

B. There will be two cells each with 36 chromosomes.

Explanation:

The products of mitosis are called diploid cells, and they each have the complete set of chromosomes. These cells are usually important for activities such as growth, repair etc. They make up our normal body (somatic) cells. Therefore, the answer is 36, only 36 matches the description of genetically identical cells
