USING THE PICTURE(S) BELOW, ANSWER THE QUESTIONS INTHE BOXES. How many homologous pairs of chromosomes are there in the \"Diploid Parent Cell\"? _____ How many individual chromosomes are there in the \"Diploid Parent Cell\"? _____ How many chromatids are there after \"Chromosome duplication\"?_____ How many individual chromosomes are there alter \"Meiosis I\"? _____ Are the daughter cells after \"Meiosis 1\" diploid How many individual chromosomes are there in the \"Haploid Gametes\"? _____ How does the number of chromosomes in the gametes compare to the number in the parent cell? _____

Solution

Answer 1.

Homologous pair of chromosomes are the pair of chromosomes that are arranged in the middle of the cells during Metaphase. As clearly seen in the picture that there are two chromosomes so answer will 2 chromosomes.

Answer 2. In each homologous chromosome, there are two chromosomes which pairs with each other so answer 4 chromosomes.

Answer 3. Each chromosome has two chromatids so cells is having total eight chromatids in four chromosomes

Answer 4. Each cell has two chromosomes each in the daughter cells after meiosis I

Answer 5 each haploid gamete has 2 chromosomes each in the haploid gametes

Answer 6. When we compare the number of chromosome to the parent cell we will find that the number of chromosome in the gametes is half of the chromosome in the parent cells
