Question

9. Given below is a diagram representing a stage
during mitotic cell division. Study it carefully and
answer the questions that follow : (2014)
Lal Is it a plant cell or an animal. Lidiabi
cell ? Give a reason to
support your answert
b) Identify the stage shown.
(c) Name the stage that follows
the one shown here. How is
that stage identified ? metu
(d) How will you differentiate
between mitosis and meiosis on the basis of the
chromosome number in the daughter cells ?
(e) Draw a duplicated chromosome and label its
parts.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. it is a plant cell because cell wall can be seen and centrioles are absent

2. it's a late prophase stage

3. metaphase follows the prophase. identification: chromosomes align themselves st the metaphasic plate or the equitorial plate and are thick enough to be studied

4. IN MITOSIS NO OF CHROMOSOMES IN DAUGHTER CELLS ARE SAME AS THE PARENT CELL WHEREAS THE NUMBER OF CHROMOSOMES GET HALVED IN DAUGHTER CELLS AFTER MEIOSIS i.e. diploid parent cell produces haploid daughter cells

5. diagram is given above at the starting of the ans

hope it helped !
