Question

Apes have 48 chromosomes in all. Some cells in the reproductive tissues of the apes undergo meiosis to form daughter cells. How many daughter cells are formed at the end of meiosis? What is the number of chromosomes within each daughter cell? plz answer

Answer 1

At the end of meiosis four daughter cells will be formed.

Explanation:

• Meiosis can be described as a process in which the number of chromosomes is reduced to half as the parent cell.

• The process of meiosis occurs in sex cells.

• Four daughter cells are produced as a result of meiosis.

• There will be 28 chromosomes in each of the daughter sex cells and 48 chromosomes in each of the autosomal cells after fertilization.
