The result of mitosis is that the daughter cells end up with the same number of chromosomes that the parent cell had. Another way to maintain the number of chromosomes would be to carry out cell division first and then duplicate the chromosomes in each daughter cell. Do you think this would be an equally good way of organizing the cell cycle? Why do you suppose that evolution has not led to this alternative?

The replication that occurs after division would generate mutations, which couldn't be repaired according to the parent cell. In this case, the genetic information would be inherited less accurately. This way of cell division would be disadvantageous for organisms and would likely be eliminated.

Normally before the cell divides completely, the chromosomes are duplicated identically and this division has several checkpoints to ensure that the process is going well. It is regulated by cyclin proteins. if it doesn't clear the checkpoint, it will not be allowed. So chromosome division is very well organized by the cell.

When the reverse happens, the chromosomal division may be collapsed incorporating mutations that are not gonna help the cells. when the cells get divided first.
