Answer:

4 chromosomes

Explanation:

Meiosis is a kind of cell division that produces daughter cells that already have their chromosome number reduced by half. Due to this reason, meiosis is called a reduction division. A diploid parent cell (2n) will produce gametes with haploid cells (n).

According to this question, a fruit fly has 8 chromosomes or 4 pairs of chromosomes in its wing cells, after undergoing meiotic division, it will possess 4 chromosomes in each gamete cell. Note that the chromosome number has been reduced by half.

What would occur if cells were in mitosis more than they were in interphase?
steposvetlana [31]
Mitosis is the cell division process that occurs anywhere in the body, these except the production of the gametes. 
If the cells were more in the mitotic process then the cells would only keep dividing in an amassing rate. This might cause some genetic errors and dysfunctions.
