A) The process of mitosis allows the old bone cells to divide and produce new bone cells.

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Mitosis can be defined as a type of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells from a single parent cell. Mitosis is responsible for growth and repairing of old or damaged cells.

When bone breaks, mitosis occurs in pre-existing bone cells, which leads to formation of new bone cells to heal broken bone.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
