In mitosis, your cells go from what state to what state?

During mitosis, cells undergo a process where replicated chromosomes are divided to ensure that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes. Specifically, mitosis starts with cells in a replicated state, where the DNA has already been duplicated during the S phase of the cell cycle. As mitosis progresses, these replicated chromosomes (each consisting of two sister chromatids) are separated and distributed into two daughter cells. By the end of mitosis, each daughter cell contains unreplicated chromosomes, as the sister chromatids have been separated.

This transformation from a replicated state to an unreplicated state is crucial for maintaining genetic consistency across cell generations. Therefore, the correct answer reflects the accurate transition that occurs during mitosis, emphasizing the change from replicated to unreplicated chromosomes.
