In Mitosis when only 2 cells are formed out of one the number of chromosomes is the same
in Meiosis when ultimately 4 new cells are formed the number of chromosomes is also the same, HOWEVER these chromosomes each contain half the number of genes as theses cells are gametes

∙ 13y agoThey have exactly the same number of chromosomes. That is what Mitosis does- it creates two genetically identical cells.
The tricky part in understanding Mitosis is that each of the CHROMOSOMES in the new cells will only have one CHROMATID. Prior to the completion of Mitosis, each of the chromosomes in the original cell had two sister chromatids connected at the Centromere- but this is still considered only ONE chromosome.
When a cell is preparing for division, the chromosomes (each with just one chromatid) undergo DNA replication so that each chromosome has two identical sister chromatids. This enables the cell to divide evenly (with each daughter cell getting a full set of chromosomes, each with one chromatid). A human cell that has undergone mitosis is still Diploid (two of each type of chromosome- two of Chromosome 3, two of Chromosome 21, etc), even though each chromosome only has one chromatid. Only cells that have undergone MEIOSIS become haploid (in Meiosis, not only do the chromatids separate, but the matched pairs of chromosomes separated as well, so that each daughter cell only gets ONE of each type of chromosome).

∙ 15y agoIf the cell is a sex cell, there will be 23 chromosomes. If it isn't a sex cell, there will be 23 pairs of chromosomes - 46 of them.

How do the new cells formed after mitosis and cytokinesis compare in size and chromosome number to each other and the original cell that divide?
The new cells formed after mitosis and cytokinesis are usually similar in size and chromosome number to each other. They are typically identical to the original cell that underwent division, as the purpose of mitosis is to produce genetically identical daughter cells. However, there can be exceptions such as during meiosis when the chromosome number differs between the original cell and the new cells.
Determine how many chromosomes are in the original cell compared to those in the new cell formed by cell division Explain?
If you mean cell division in mitosis, the number of chromosomes in the original cell and new cell should be the same.
Double cell division process that leaves the four newly formed cells with half the chromosomes of the original cell?
Meiosis .
A specie with a diploid chromosome number of 4 if gametes were formed by mitosis rather than meiosis what would happen to the chromosome number of the offspring of these organisms over generations?
the next generation offs will be with double set of chromosomes. and the set of chromosomes will multiply with the generations as the mitosis is equal division.
How many chromosomes in rafflesia?
the number of chromosomes present in the somatic cells of rafflesia flower is 12... but as in gametes,gametes are formed by meiosis or reductional division ( in which the number of chromosomes becomes half the parent cell so that after fertilization, the original chromosome count is restored and the organism is identical), the number of chromosomes found in the games of raffleisa will be 12/2 or 6 chromosomes.
How many chromosome are in the original cell compared to those in the new formed by cell division?
If the cell division follows mitosis, the number of chromosomes in original cell and new cells remain the same. During meiosis the new cells formed have half the number of chromosomes of original cell.
How many DNAmolecules make up each original chromosome?
A chromosome is formed from a single DNA molecule.

If the chromosome number of a typical onion root tip cell is sixteen before mitosis what is the chromosome number of the each newly formed nucleus after nuclear division has taken place?
the same as before, each will have sixteen. If it was meyoses it would be 1/2 that (8) Mitotic division creates exact replicates of the original, so the answer is 16. Meosis occurs in the flower of the onion, it's sex cells ovules and pollen will have only 8 chromosomes
What are two cells formed after mitosis and cell division?
The two new cells formed after mitosis and cell division are called daughter cell. Their nucleus is genetically identical to the nucleus of the original cell .The two new cells formed after mitosis and cell division. There are no differences between the two cells. They have the same number of chromosomes after division.
How many cells are formed after cell division?
When body cells (somatic) undergo cell division (mitosis) It creates a duplicate cell. So for every cell undergoing cellular division, one new cell plus will be formed and the original will remain.
Why are new cells formed the same as the original cell during cell division?
because they have the same DNA
What two new cells are formed after mitosis and cell division?
