Imagine a diploid cell contains 14 chromosomes and undergoes the process of mitotic cell division. Identify how many chromosomes would be in the daughter cells of this completed process. How many chromosomes will be produced in the daughter cells under meiosis if a cell has 14 chromosomes?
Added by Mercedes B.
Step 1
So, if the diploid cell has 14 chromosomes, each daughter cell will also have 14 chromosomes. In meiosis, the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced to half of the parent cell. So, if the diploid cell has 14 chromosomes, each daughter cell will Show more…
