Question

multiple-choice question after mitosis and cytokinesis is complete, each new daughter cell has how many chromosomes? 22 chromosomes or 11 pairs 40 total chromosomes or 20 pairs 46 total chromosomes or 23 pairs

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process of cell division where a parent cell divides into two daughter cells, and the daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell (for somatic human cells, the parent cell has 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs). After mitosis and cytokinesis, each daughter cell should have the same chromosome count as the original cell. So the correct option is the one with 46 total chromosomes or 23 pairs.

Answer:

C. 46 total chromosomes or 23 pairs (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C with A being "22 chromosomes or 11 pairs", B being "40 total chromosomes or 20 pairs", C being "46 total chromosomes or 23 pairs")
