Question

Mitotic cell division occurs while producing haploid spores.

WBBSE Class X Life Science 02 (a) Cell Division and Cell Cycle 01 Mark 2024

Answer

False.

Explanation:

Mitotic cell division produces daughter cells that are genetically identical and maintain the same chromosome number as the parent cell (diploid). Haploid spores are produced by meiotic cell division, which reduces the chromosome number by half, leading to genetic variation in sexually reproducing organisms.
