Let’s say A plant cell, normally diploid, completely screws up mitosis during metaphase and pulls full copies of all chromosomes

to one side duplicating the entire genome and all chromosomes. What “n” would this result in? Hint: another term for this is tetraploid.

Answer:

4N

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process whereby a cell duplicates or produces another identical copy of itself. The mitotic process, which occurs in four main stages produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. For example, a diploid organism (2n) will produce two daughter cells with 2n from mitosis.

However, in a case whereby a plant cell (A) screws up mitosis during metaphase and pulls full copies of all chromosomes to one side. This would result in one daughter cell having 4n or tetraploid number of chromosomes. Ideally, mitosis separates the chromosomes equally into the two daughter cells to have 2n each. If one cell has all chromosomes, it means that cell will have all the 4n.

For example, in a diploid human cell with 46 chromosomes (2n). Mitosis should occur in such a way that each daughter cell will have a diploid 46 number of chromosome (2n). However, if all the chromosome ends up in one cell during mitosis, that cell will have 92chromosomes, which is 4n or tetraploidy.
