After you have completed the webquest view a few of the below videos.  Pay close attention to the following:
1. How many daughter cells are found at the end of each cell division?
2. What is the function of each division and which cells do they occur in?
3. How many chromosomes are found in the daughter cells compared to the mother cells?
4. How many divisions and interphases does each go through?
