What process ensures that the daughter cells contain the same genetic material as the parent?

Mitosis. The parent nucleus splits into two daughter nuclei containing chromosomes identical to that of the parent cell.


What describes a nuclear fission?

A parent element splits into two daughter elements. (APEX)


What is the difference in DNA between parent call and daughter cells?

A cell that undergoes mitosis, such as a bacteria cell, splits to create an identical cell (daughter cell) that has identical DNA. So, when a cells split to multiply and grow, there DNA is the same, unless a mutation occurs.


What is the other term of parent cell?

When a cell undergoes cell division, it splits to produce two new cells. These new cells are called daughter cells. The original cell which splits to produce the daughter cells is known as the parent cell.


Single cells spilt into 2 cells what process is this?

Cytokenesis is the process by which a single cell splits in to two "daughter" cells.


How many haploid cells come from one diploid?

If you are asking about cellular meiosis, one diploid parent cell will ultimately form four haploid daughter cells. The parent cell replicates all of its DNA, splits into two intermediate daughter cells that are diploid, and each of these intermediate daughter cells splits to form two more daughter cells. The end result is four haploid cells.


Why is mitoosis a form of asexual reproduction?

because mitosis is when ONE parent cell splits into two daughter cells. and asexual reproduction only involves one parent


During mitosis if a parent cell has five chromosomes how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have?

The daughter cell will have five (5). The parent cell replicates its DNA in a stage of mitosis called Interphase before it splits, into two new daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes.


What are the two new cells that are duplicated from DNA during mitosis called?

the two new cells are called daughter cells.


what process reduces the chromosome number of a cell by half?

Well, meiosis splits a cell into two daughter half-cells.


What stage is cytokinesis in?

Cytokinesis is not the stage of mitosis. It is the process in which cytoplasm of cell splits while mitosis is a process in which nucleus of cell is splitted into two daughter nuclei.


What does parent cell mean?

A parent cell, also known as mother cell, is the origin of other cells. It is a cell that splits to make two or more daughter cells. A parent cell can be the first stem cell in a line of expanding cells.
