Question 122093 • IL-Science 7 A

Which statement describes the cell cycle?

Answer
A
The cell cycle is a process in which one cell divides into four genetically different cells.
B
The cell cycle is a process in which one cell divides into two genetically different cells.
C
The cell cycle is a process in which one cell divides into two genetically identical cells.
D
The cell cycle is a process in which one cell divides into four genetically identical cells.

Explanation

In the cell cycle, a cell grows, copies its DNA, and divides through mitosis and cytokinesis. This produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other and, barring mutations, to the original cell. So the correct statement is that one cell divides into two genetically identical cells.
