    100 units

    Explanation:

    The mother cell contains 200 units of DNA. During cell division, this amount is split between the daughter cells produced and each daughter cell will receive half of the amount of DNA present in the parent cell.

    Since mitotic cell division process gives rise to 2 daughter cells, each daughter cell will receive 100 units of DNA.
