Which of the following statements are True? There may be more than one answer. Select one or more: a. Mitosis results in 2 haploid cells O b. If a parent cell with 10 chromosomes undergoes mitosis, each offspring cell will have 10 chromosomes O c. At the start of meiosis, a human cell will have 46 chromosomes and 92 chromatids d.
