In which group of eukaryotic organisms does the nuclear envelope remain intact during mitosis?
Correct answer: A. Seedless plants
- A. Seedless plants
- B. Dinoflagellates
- C. Diatoms
- D. (B) and (C) only
- E. (A), (B) and (C)
Explanation
In seedless plants, which are a group of eukaryotic organisms, the nuclear envelope typically remains intact during mitosis. This is a characteristic feature of plants, including both seedless and seed-producing plants. Unlike in many animal cells where the nuclear envelope breaks down during mitosis, plant cells often undergo a process called closed mitosis, where the nuclear envelope remains intact throughout the process.
