  • Firstly we have to know what is meiosis.
  • Meiosis is the cell division process by which a diploid (2n) mother cell divided twice to produce four haploid (n) daughter cells.
  • Diploid cells have paired chromosomes. For example, in human, the diploid cells contain 23 paired chromosomes, i.e., 46 chromosomes.
  • Haploid cells do not have paired chromosomes. In human, the haploid cells contain 23 chromosomes only.
  • We know, chromosomes contain DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid).
  • So, if the chromosome number is half in case of haploid cells, then obviously, they have half as much DNA.
  • So, the correct option is 2. They have half as much DNA.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>2</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>They </u><u>have </u><u>half </u><u>as </u><u>much </u><u>DNA</u><u>.</u>

Hope you could understand.

What would happen if one of the chromosomes in a homologous pair failed to separate from its homologue at the end of metaphase I
Zepler [3.9K]

The correct answer is: daughter cells will have abnormal chromosome numbers and this condition is called aneuploidy.

Nondisjunction is the failure of homologous chromosomes (or sister chromatids) to separate during the process of cell division and consequently lead to aneuploidy. There are three forms of nondisjunction:  

• Nondisjunction in meiosis I (pair of homologous chromosomes unable to separate in meiosis I),  

• Nondisjunction in meiosis I (sister chromatids unable to separate during meiosis II), and

•  Nondisjunction in mitosis (failure of sister chromatids to separate during mitosis)

In granulocytes, what happens to the nucleus as the cell ages?
jeka94

The granulocytes have been commonly recognised and distinguished histologically by their nuclear shapes and sizes. They contain multi-lobed nuclei, each lobe connected by a short region of nucleoplasm.
