    Question

    Mitosis is the method by which eukaryotic cells

    1. produce genes for protein synthesis
    2. Become specialized in structure 
    3. Grow
    4. Multiply

    Hint:

    The number of cells increase after mitosis.

    The correct answer is: Grow

      • Mitosis is the production of two identical daughter cells 
      • This process occurs in body or somatic cells
      • The number of cells double after mitosis
      • The mitosis is the basis for growth of an organism
      • The mitosis occurs at a prescribed rate. If the multiplication of cells occur in an uncontrolled fashion the condition is called cancer.
