If an organism has a diploid number of 16, how many chromatids are visible at the end of mitotic prophase?..?

Question

..(cont.) how many chromosomes are moving to each pole during anaphase of mitosis???




2. An organism has a diploid number of 16 in primary oocyte. a) how many tetrads are prsent in the 1st meiotic prophase? b) how many dyads are present in the second meiotic prophase? c) how many monads migrate to each pole during the second with those of mitosis?


hi, i m tryin to help my kid in his bio class, but i dont no this answer as he missed couple days of school cuz of sickness. hope anyone can help me to answer this q's.. thank you in advance..

Given the end results of the two types of division, why is it necessary for homologs to pair during meiosis and not desirable for them to pair during mitosis?

Q) assume that in a series of experiments, plants with round seeds were crossed to plants with wrinkled seeds and the following offspring were obtained: 220 round; 180 wrinkled.
a)what is the most probable genotype of each parents?
b)what genotypic and pheotypic ratios are expected?
c)based on the information provided in part b above, what are the expected (theoretical) numbers of progeny of each phenotypic class?

Answer 1

If an organism has a diploid number of 16, there will be 32 chromatids visible at the end of mitotic prophase. There will be 16 chromosomes moving to each pole during anaphase of mitosis.

Answer 2

I belive if im thinking of diploid and haploid in the proper terms it will always be two when a cell divides in mitosis so that the new cell is an exact copy of the last one. Although with diploid 16 it might be four if the organism divides with the same number of poles as humans.
cant help you with second question sorry
the genotypes are probably Rr and rr because of the ratio
1 in 2 is the phenotype estimation of the progeny genotype is probably 1 in four

Answer 3

1. 32. each chromosome has two sister chromatids
16a. 16
b. 8
c. 8
