Here are a couple of questions from my Anatomy and Physiology homework that I don't understand. 1. In what ways are the new cells (daughter cells), which result from a cell cycle, similar? 2. How do the new cells slightly differ?

After mitosis, daughter cells are almost completely identical to the parent cell. The only way that they are different are the telomeres. The daughter cells have slightly fewer telomeres than the parent (this is because the very end of the DNA during DNA replication cannot be replicated). In all other aspects, they are identical.
