Answer:

The answer is it will have 40.

Explanation:

After mitosis the daughter cells have the same amount as the parent cell.

Answer:

40

Explanation:

In a mitotic cell division, the number of chromosomes remains constant. It is so because the chromosomes are replicated to produce chromatid which during cell division is equally distributed in all the daughter cells thereby preserving the chromosome number.  

For instance - if the somatic cell has 40 chromosomes then these chromosomes will duplicate to produce 80 chromatid. After the cell division, two daughter cells will be formed with each having 40 chromosomes.

Answer:

d. inclusion of I1 in the mRNA

Explanation:

Introns are any nucleotide sequence within the gene that is non-coding and it is usually removed  by RNA splicing.

When an RNA transcript is made, it is considered as pre-mRNA. The pre-RNA  contains both the introns and the exons. For it to mature into mRNA, the introns should be spliced and the exons are joined together to form the mRNA.

A mutation might result to the intron I1 not getting spliced hence it will be included in the mRNA.

Alex17521 [72]

Mitosis is one of the precious processes. If it goes wrong then the results will be terrible as it can even bring death to the organism or uncontrollable mutation.


Mitosis is the process in which a cell replicates itself to produce a copy of it. As a result of mitosis, each cell carries the copies of the original cell’s DNA.  


The uncertain error in mitosis will cause a mutation which affect the amino acid sequence and further functions. This will lead to the cell cycle disruption that can lead to the formation of cancer cells that are uncontrollable in dividing itself.
