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

Biology
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
5 0

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.

The exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids that may result in new gene combinations on the chromosomes is called the random assortment. It involves formation of random combinations of chromosomes in meiosis and of genes on different pairs of homologous chromosomes by the passage according to the laws of probability of one of each diploid pair of homologous chromosomes into each gamete independently to each other pair.

Which food molecule (monosaccharide, polysaccharide, lipid, or protein) would you eat if...
torisob [31]
<span>You needed a quick boost of energy - MONOSACCHARIDE

You wanted to grow strong nails, you haven't eaten in days - PROTEIN

You wanted to grow healthy hair - PROTEIN

You had a race tomorrow afternoon - POLYSACCHARIDE 

You were getting ready for hibernation - LIPIDS

You wanted to get bigger muscles - PROTEIN 

Your meal will be in a week - LIPIDS

CARBOHYDRATES include monosaccharide and polysaccharides. They provide immediate energy boost or short term energy storage for animals as well as long term energy storage for plants. 

PROTEIN s</span>peeds up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy. It is used to form bones and build muscles. It is m<span>ade up of an amino group, a carboxyl group, and an R group.

LIPIDS can be saturated or unsaturated fatty acids. They are not soluble in water however they provide long-term energy storage for animals. </span>
