When you say 24 chromosomes BEGINS mitosis, do you mean after interphase(after DNA is replicated)? If you do mean that, then each daughter cell would have 12 chromosomes, because during interphase, DNA is replicated, and the parent cell splits into two daughter cells, which each of them has 12 chromosomes.
First every somatic cell in your body has 22 chromosomes plus one sexual chromosome in addition you have a pair of each of these chromosomes one from your mother and one from your father so in total humans have 46 chromosomes. So IF you had 46 chromosomes at the the beginning of meisos each cell would inherit a copy of each so it would divide by 2 = 23 these sister cells will carry a copy of each chromosome. Remember the purpose of meiosis is to reduce the number of chromosome in germ cells and includes crossover which gives you your genictic variablility. Then there is a second phase of meisos which seperates the sister chromatids ( pretty much mitosis at this point) generated from before so now you have 4 cells each with a unique combination of genes. Here a link to give you a visual depcition. Good luck with your studies! http://www.Biology.iupui.edu/biocourses/n100/2k4ch9meiosisnotes.html
There will be two daughter cells and they will each contain 24 chromosomes, the same as the parent cell.
Each daughter cell will have the same number and type of chromosomes as the daughter cell. Both will be identical to the parent cell.
Each daughter cell will have 24 chromosomes.
At the end of mitotic cell division, each newly formed cell has 2n number of chromosomes, the same as the parent cell

With twice the amount of chromosomes in the parent cell, each daughter cell can have a normal number of chromosomes after the cell splits in mitosis.
38, as the chromosomes would be duplicated to 76 during the S phase of interphase, then would be divided into two cells during mitosis.
No. Chromosomes have the exact number of DNA a cell needs. When undergoing mitosis, the chromosomes replicate inside the cell. Only during that small period of time, does a normal human cell have twice the DNA that a cell needs. The end stage of mitosis is when the cell divides into two, equally dividing the DNA amongst the two daughter cells.

The daughter cells produced are genetcally identical. A mitosis divides cells, which still contains the same number on chromosomes. In mitosis DNA is replicated once, and the nucleus divides once. In meiosis DNA is replicated once, but the nucleus is divided twice.
Mitosis will separate the sister-chromatids of each chromosome, and each will now be called a chromosome (or daughter-chromosome).Without cytokinesis, the mother-cell will not split into two daughter-cells. The result will be a cell with twice as many chromosomes as the mother-cell.Since an unfertilized egg (ovum) is a gamete, it must be haploid. Doubling the number of chromosomes will produce a diploid cell.
With twice the amount of chromosomes in the parent cell, each daughter cell can have a normal number of chromosomes after the cell splits in mitosis.
Mitosis is the cell cycle phase wherein the cell nucleus chromosomes are separated. After mitosis, two identical cells will be created.

A cell undergoing mitosis has twice the usual number of chromosomes for that species. For example, human body cells have 46 chromosomes, but after DNA replication, which must occur before mitosis, a human body cell will have 92 chromosomes.
Meiosis is Sexual Reproduction, unlike Mitosis, that is responsible for cell growth and other functions. Meiosis has the same phases as Mitosis except that it undergoes those phase twice (Meiosis l and ll). This results in 4 daughter cells, unlike Mitosis which results in only 2 daughter cells. Also, in Mitosis the daughter cells are identical to the original cell, while in Meiosis, it increases genetic variation, because it has characteristics of both parent cells.
The daughter cells produced are genetcally identical. A mitosis divides cells, which still contains the same number on chromosomes. In mitosis DNA is replicated once, and the nucleus divides once. In meiosis DNA is replicated once, but the nucleus is divided twice.
Interphase then Mitosis then Cytokinesis then Mitosis the Cytokinesis That's what I remember. Mitosis will occur twice; the reason why there 4 daughter cells (gametes) and they are haploid.
twice as many as when the cell is not undergoing mitosis
