1) Result of mitosis is that daughter cells end up with the similar number of the chromosomes just as the parent cell. This is obtained through the chromosome duplication followed by the cell division. Let an alternative, hypothetical process, where the cells undergo the cell division first and then the chromosomes get duplicated in every daughter cell.

a) Explain how results of the mitosis differ between the two processes of cell division? Provide specific answer.

b) Provide the difference you have given in (a) Explain if you think the hypothetical process would be equally effective at maintaining the chromosome number within the daughter cells? Why or why not? Develop the actual and the hypothetical alternative scenarios and compare and contrast.

c) Consider that this hypothetical process happens in the meiosis. How end products would differ between the actual and hypothetical meiotic processes? Design the actual and the hypothetical processes and also provide some comparison.
