A) 2 in mitosis and 1 in meiosis
B) 1 in mitosis and 2 in meiosis
C) 2 each in mitosis and meiosis
D) 2 in mitosis and 4 in meiosis

Answer 1

the answer to your question is C

Answer 2

The number of chromatids in a chromosome at anaphase is 2 each in mitosis and meiosis.

Answer: Option c

Explanation:

Anaphase is the fourth stage of the cell division. Before entering in this phase the chromosomes are divided into two chromatids and gets attached to the centromere part and aligned at the equator region of the cell.

But after entering in the anaphase stage the two chromatids are separated and form an identical individual chromosome and goes to the both pole of the cell.
