A student gets a cut on his hand. Within a week, the cut has healed and there is little evidence of the original injury. What can we assume about the cells surrounding the cut?
-Mitosis has occurred, where healthy eukaryotic cells divide to form new cells.
-Binary fission has occurred, allowing the injured prokaryotic cells to repair and grow.
-The remaining cells grew and reproduced asexually through binary fission.
-The injured eukaryotic cells healed, repaired, and grew through mitosis.

The first one. Mitosis is the replication of a cell, it does not heal and repair an existing cell.
