Which of the steps in this sequence of events is an example of mitosis at work?

Answer
A
The player reacts quickly grabbing his arm.
B
The bruise slowly disappears as the arm heals.
C
A baseball hits the arm of a baseball player.
D
A bruise forms where the ball hit the arm.

Explanation

Mitosis is the process by which cells divide to make new cells. As the arm heals, new cells replace or repair damaged tissue, helping the bruise slowly disappear. The impact, bruise formation, and quick reaction are not examples of cell division.
