Answer 1

Answer:(i) Plant cell because the cell wall is present and centrioles are absent.  

(ii) The above diagram shows the late prophase.

(iii) Metaphase follows the prophase. The chromosomes will be arranged at the equator attached to the spindle fibre.  

(iv) In Mitosis: The chromosome number in the daughter cell is the same as that of the mother cell i.e., diploid mother cell gives rise to 2 diploid daughter cells.  

In Meiosis: The chromosome number is halved in the daughter cells i.e., the diploid mother cell gives rise to four haploid daughter cells
