    two of each chromosome‚ one from each parent. The chromosome number stays the same in mitosis where there are twenty-three chromosomes in each cell produced‚ totaling forty-six in humans. It is important to understand that this number varies with different species. The genetic makeup of mitotic cells is identical to those of the parent cells. This means that the DNA‚ which stands for deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is identical in every cell formed from mitosis. Crossing over of chromosomes cannot occur
