Do you know what mitosis does?

OpenStudy (bohotness):

kind of

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

The main functions of mitosis are growth and repair. After mitosis two identical cells are created with the same original number of chromosomes, 46. Haploid cells that are generated through meiosis, such as egg and sperm, only have 23 chromosomes, because, remember, meiosis is a "reduction division." Makes all cells other than gametes. That rules out B and C.

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

What do you think it is?

OpenStudy (bohotness):

d or c

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

Nope, "Makes all cells other than gametes." The "other than" means not gametes. "After mitosis two identical cells are created with the same original number of chromosomes, 46." There are "two" new cells, with two new nuclei, so not B. "such as egg and sperm" is only one of them, so the more specific answer would be A. A is correct.
