If a nucleus has eight chromosomes during interphase, how many chromosomes does it have after mitosis is complete

Answer:

8 chromosomes

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process whereby a cell divides into two identical copies of itself. This genetical identity emanates from the fact that the daughter cells possess the same kind and number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Hence, a nucleus that has eight (8) chromosomes during interphase will possess 8 chromosome in each daughter cell at the end of mitosis. Mitosis, which consists of stages, duplicate its DNA at the interphase stage but do not increase the chromosome number. Sister chromatids are formed for each chromosome, which separate during anaphase stage, and become individual chromosome in each daughter cell.

In this case, 8 chromosome are still formed at interphase but 16 sister chromatids. These chromatids separate equally into each daughter cell i.e 8 in each cell to become individual chromosomes.
