How many chromosomes are present in a daughter cell after mitosis? f. How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are visible in the cell in metaphase of meiosis I?arrow_forwardFigure 13.6 Which of the following statements about nondisjunction is true? Nondisjunction only results in gametes with n+1 or n-1 chromosomes. Nondisjunction occurring during meiosis II results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction during meiosis I results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction always results in four different kinds of gametes.arrow_forwardAt which stage of meiosis are sister chromatids separated from each other? a. prophase I b. prophase ll c. anaphase I d. anaphase llarrow_forward
