Human cells normally have 46 chromosomes. For each of the following stages, state the number of chromosomes present in a human cell:
1. Metaphase of mitosis
2. Metaphase I of meiosis
3. Telophase of mitosis
4. Telophase I of meiosis
Telophase II of meiosis
A cell has 8 chromosomes in G1 of interphase. Draw a picture of this cell with its chromosomes at the following stages. Indicate how many DNA molecules are present at each stage. a. Metaphase of mitosis b. Anaphase of mitosis c. Anaphase II of meiosis d. Diplotene of meiosis I
