Because hemoglobin is compartmentalized inside the RBCs, lysis of RBCs is necessary for accurate measurement of hemoglobin levels.

<h3>Measure of hemoglobin concentration</h3>

Hemoglobin is a complex found in blood which is responsible for transporting oxygen to cells of the body.

Hemoglobin is composed of heme and the proteins alpha and beta globin.

Hemoglobin is found within the cytoplasm of red blood cells.

Since hemoglobin is compartmentalized inside the RBCs, lysis of RBCs is necessary for accurate measurement of hemoglobin levels.

Answer: The daughter cells develop after the cell division will have unequal number of chromosomes.

Explanation:

The interphase is the stage of the cell cycle in which the parent cell prepares itself for division. It increases in size and develops organelles for cell division. Before the cell division the replication of the genetic material in the form of DNA is necessary so that both daughter cells receive equal amount of genetic material after the cell splits by mitosis. Mitosis is a cell division in which the parent diploid cell splits into two haploid daughter cells. Each daughter cell receives the half the chromosomes as that of the parent cell.
