Well, the original parent has 8 chromosomes, and the result of mitosis is 2 diploid daughter cells, so both daughter cells will end up wit the same number of chromosomes as the mother-8.

ok woow to much writing in more simple terms that would mean 16 cells during- 8 cells after

in mitosis, the new cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

hence the answer is 8

the daughter cell will have 8 halves of chromosomes and it will synthetise the remaining 8 halves later, so the daughter cell will have 8 chromosomes.

The cell would have 16 chromosomes since metaphase has eight. Since anaphase involves the separating the chromosomes to opposite poles, the quantity will double.

after mitosis, the two daughter cells will contain 8 chromosomes, same as parantel cell.

Normally, parental cell starts with 46, after mitosis the two daughter cells each have 46.

If a cell has 32 chromosomes prior to the S phase and undergoes mitosis followed by cytokinesis each new daughter cell will have how many chromosomes?

two or four it all depends on sister and daughter chromosomes during the mitosis procedure about half the amount


How many chromosomes will the resulting cells have in mitosis?

This depends both on the cell undergoing mitosis and the stage in mitosis which is currently underway. Humans have 46 chromosomes per cell, but in some stages of mitosis have 92. Dogs have 78 chromosomes, but at some stages of mitosis have 156.


What happens during the four phases of mitosis?

Fist thing that happens is Interphase. This is what a cell spends most of its life in, but it is not part of Mitosis, it is before. Interphase is the duplicating of the cell's chromosomes( which hold the DNA). Next is Mitosis. I remember the four stages of Mitosis by PMAT. First stage of mitosis is Prophase, this is when the membrane surrounding the chromosomes is dissolved. Second stage is Metaphase, the chromosomes line up in the middle in pairs. Third stage is Anaphase, the chromosome pairs separate and go to opposite sides of the cell. Last stage of Mitosis is Telephase, the cell starts to split in half taking one of each chromosome. After Mitosis is Cytokinesis, this is when the membrane forms around the the chromosomes and the 1 parent cell is now 2 daughter cells.


In Mitosis if a cell has 16 chromosomes how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have?

It depends on the process: mitosis or meiosis. If the cell is dividing through mitosis, then the two daughter cells will have 16 chromosomes; in meiosis, the four daughter cells will have 8 chromosomes.


How many cells result from meiosis and mitosis?

Meiosis creates four daughter cells, and mitosis results in two.

What do the daughter cells that result from mitosis have?

it has four times the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

How does mitosis differ from meiosis in terms of chromosome segregation?

Meiosis results in four cells, each with half the chromosomes of the original cell. Mitosis results in two cells, each which has the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.

In what phase of mitosis does the Majority of cell growth occur?

Cell growth occurs during interphase. Interphase prepares the cell for division by doubling the number of organelles and duplicating the chromosomes. Interphase is not actually part of Mitosis, as mitosis is strictly the dividing of the cell. Thus, no growth occurs during any of mitosis' four phases (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase).


What is the difference between the number of chromosomes between a parent cell and its daughter cells?

the daughter cells have half the chromosomes the parent cell does. so when the sex cell combines with the other there isn't double chromosomes. :) the daughter cells have half the chromosomes the parent cell does. so when the sex cell combines with the other there isn't double chromosomes. :)


What is a list of the four phase of mitosis in order?

Phase 1- Mitosis begins. Chromosomes condense from long strands into rodlike structures. Phase 2- The nuclear membrane is dissolved. Paired chromatids align at the cell's equator. Phase 3- The paired chromatids separate and move to opposite sides of the cell. Phase 4- A nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromosomes, and the chromosomes decondense. Mitosis is complete.
