One round of division, producing four genetically identical daughter cells
B
Two rounds of division, producing four genetically distinct daughter cells
C
One round of division, producing two genetically identical daughter cells
D

Verified step by step guidance1
Recall that mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two daughter cells from one parent cell.
Understand that during mitosis, the genetic material is duplicated once and then divided equally, so each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes.
Recognize that one complete cell cycle includes one round of mitosis, which produces two genetically identical daughter cells.
Differentiate mitosis from meiosis, where two rounds of division occur, producing four genetically distinct daughter cells.
Conclude that in mitosis, there is only one round of cell division per cell cycle, resulting in two genetically identical daughter cells.
