The answer is 8 (anaphase 1), 8 (anaphase 2), 4 (metaphase 2).

Meiosis is a cell division which results in a reduction of the number of chromosomes in half and it consists of meiosis I and meiosis II.
Before meiosis I begins, the cell is diploid (2n) and there are 8 chromosomes. In anaphase I<span>, the sister chromatids separate from each other to the opposite sides of the cells, and after that, there are 8 chromosomes and 16 chromatids. After telophase I, there are, however, <u>4 chromosomes that enter meiosis II</u>.
</span>
Meiosis II is similar to mitosis. So, in metaphase II there is the same number of chromosomes - 4 chromosomes. But, the chromosome number must double so in anaphase II there will be in total 8 chromosomes - 4 chromosomes at the one side of the cell and the 4 on the other side. After telophase II, there are 4 chromosomes.

Match the description of each plants with the group to which the plant belongs. (Match each number to a letter please!)
Hoochie [10]

The right matches are :

A. bryophyte  ==> 3.

B. pteridophyte  ==> 2.

C. gymnosperm  ==> 1.  

D. angiosperm  ==> 4.


These four types of plants are cormophytes.

Bryophyte is a terrestrial plant belonging to the family Bryophyta, which does not have a real vascular system.

Gymnosperms are the first order of didynamy containing phanerogamous plants whose eggs are not enclosed in closed carpels.

Angiosperms are plants whose seeds are enclosed in a closed ovary.

Pteridophytes produce neither flowers nor seeds but are vascular plants.
