<span>The organism will produce 12 chromosomes (A).
Sex cells are the products of meiosis. Daughter cells of meiosis contain half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. So if the parent cell has 24 chromosomes, then the sex cell would have <em>12 chromosomes</em>.</span>
<span>C; Reproductive isolation must occur before the formation of a new species.</span>
<span>Scientists found that the cytoplasm of cells undergoing mitosis, if injected into cells at other stages of the cell cycle, could induce the non-dividing cells to start mitosis. This suggested that a chemical signal was present in the cytoplasm of dividing cells that was responsible for "telling" the cells that they should proceed into mitosis. By fractionating the cytoplasm into its components, scientists were able to isolate the signal that triggers mitosis.</span>
