If a garden pea has 14 chromosomes before meiosis, how many chromosomes would exist in each nucleus after meiosis I? After meiosis II? Compare meiosis I and meiosis II. How are they different? Which one is most like mitosis? Before mitosis begins, one sister chromatid of a duplicated chromosome has the allele b, what allele will the other sister chromatid have?
