Which process guarantees the preservation of genetic information during mitosis?

Show Answers

Production of two daughter cells containing identical genetic materialExchange of genetic segments between chromosomesReduction of chromosome number by half in daughter cellsDistribution of maternal and paternal traits separately

Explanation

The correct answer is A. During mitosis, two daughter cells are produced, each with the same DNA as the parent cell, ensuring genetic consistency. Option B refers to crossing over, which occurs in meiosis. Option C describes the chromosome number halving seen in meiosis, not mitosis. Option D relates to the segregation of parental traits, which is not the primary mechanism in mitosis.
