C

6

D

8

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Mitotic cells division is equational division where a mother cell divides to form 2 daughter cells. So to produce 256 cells from a single cell, 8 mitotic divisions will occur which can be represented as `1rarr2rarr4rarr8rarr16rarr64rarr128rarr256`.
