Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Mitosis results in the production of daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell.

ANS: C
The first chromosome abnormality to be identified and associated with a specific malignancy was the Philadelphia chromosome. It initially was associated with chronic myelogenous leukemia, although clinicians now know it to be found in other hematologic malignancies.
