Question

anaphase i: show separation of homologous chromosomes. cells equator telophase i and cytokinesis: show the resulting two daughter cells. 6. how many cells do you have at this stage? _ 7. how many chromosomes does each cell have? _ 8. are the chromosomes still replicated chromosomes?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the stage

The stage is Telophase I and cytokinesis of meiosis. During cytokinesis, the cell divides into two daughter - cells.

Step2: Count the number of cells

At Telophase I and cytokinesis, the parent cell has divided into two daughter cells. So the answer to question 6 is 2.

Step3: Analyze chromosome number

In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate. Each daughter cell receives half of the chromosome number of the parent cell. But since the chromosomes were replicated before meiosis I started, each chromosome still consists of two sister chromatids. Counting the chromosome structures in the diagram for each daughter - cell, we find that each cell has 23 chromosomes (assuming a human - like scenario where the parent cell had 46 chromosomes).

Step4: Determine chromosome replication status

The chromosomes are still replicated because each chromosome is composed of two sister chromatids held together at the centromere. This is characteristic of the end of meiosis I before meiosis II starts when the sister chromatids will separate.

Answer:

  1. 2
  2. 23
  3. Yes
