How many chromosomes does each cell have compared to an original cell?

Daughter cells produced by mitosis and cytokinesis have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell. Daughter cells resulting from meiosis and cytokinesis have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.


How many choromosomes does each new cell contain after mitosis if the original cell had 52 original cell chromosomes?

After mitotic cell division, if the parent cell had 52 chromosomes, the daughter cells will also have 52 chromosomes identical to each other and the parent cell.

What would be the number of chromosomes in tr daughter cells if the chromosomes in the original parent cell did not duplicate?

46 (2n : 46), is the number r of chromosomes in tr daughter cells if the chromosomes in the original parent cell did not duplicate


How many chromosomes does each new cell contain after mitosis if the original cell had 52 original cell chromosomes?

They would each have 52. When a cell divides through mitosis, it copies the original chromosomes, pulls them apart so that there is a copy of the same set of chromosomes on each side of the cell, then divides. The original set of chromosomes will always be the exact same set as the daughter cell's set of chromosomes (unless something went horribly wrong.) -if you are on a worksheet called "Section 1 Reinforcement - Cell Division and Mitosis" for number 8, I'm in the same situation...


How do many chromosomes does each new cell contain after mitosis if the oringle cell hadf 52 original cell chomososomes?

The two daughter cells will also have 52 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes will each daughter cell have after meiosis occurs?

The new cell will have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.


How many chromosomes does each new cell contain(After mitosis) if the original cell had 52 chromosomes?

52 - mitosis produces daughter cells with exactly the same chromosomes of the original cell.


How many chromosomes does each daughter contain after mitosis if the parent cell had 52 original cell chromosomes?

Each daughter cell will have 52 chromosomes. This is because mitosis produces daughter cells which are genetically identical to the parent cell. Therefore they will have the same number of chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are in a daughter cell after meiosis 2?

Half the number that were in the original cell.


What can you say about the number of chromosomes received by each daughter cells after mitosis?

The number of chromosomes that each daughter cell has after mitosis is equal to the number of chromosomes in the original (parent) cell.


How many chromosomes are in the daughter cell at the end of mitosis?

There are going to be half the amount of the original chromosomes that were in each cell to begin with. So therefore there are going to be 4 chromosomes in each daughter cell at the end of mitosis..Actually there will be 2 chromosomes, in each daughter cell at the end of mitosis!
