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 is a period of nuclear division in a cell called?
The division of nucleus and its parts during cell division is called Cytokinesis.Firstly, during Prophase the nucleus membrane starts disappearing and then after(Metaphase,Anaphase)it, in Telophase it again appears when the daughter cells are almost forming. Here the division of nucleus ends an then the division of cytoplasm takes place which is called Karyokinesis.
Explain why the terms cell division and mitosis should not be used interchangeably?
Mitosis takes place in the nucleus of a dividing cell. Cell division refers to both nuclear and cytoplasmic division as a whole.
The division of the cell nucleus called?
Mitosis is the process that refers to the splitting of the nucleus, in which two daughter nuclei are produced. Cytokinesis refers to the division of the membrane and cytoplasm.
Does mitosis occur in all cells?
Yes mitosis is a nuclear division - Mitosis is the process of nuclear division of either diploid or haploid eukaryotic cells whereby two daughter nuclei are produced that are genetically identical to the parent nucleus.Cell division then follows nuclear division.
Why can't prokaryotic cells undergo mitotic division?
Mitotic division is the includes division of nucleus and it divides the cell into two daughter cell whereas the prokaryotic cell don't have nucleus and they are divided through the process of binary fission
In Mitosis What organelle does the division of the nucleus?
In mitosis, the division of the nucleus is carried out by the spindle fibers. These fibers are formed by the microtubules and are responsible for separating the duplicated chromosomes into two sets in the process called cytokinesis.
What is it called when preparations are made for the nucleus to divide?
The process or nuclear division is known as mitosis.

What are the differences between mitosis and cytokinesis?
Mitosis is the division of the nucleus. Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm.
What is nuclear division?
The process by which a nucleus divides, resulting in the segregation of the genome to opposite poles of a dividing cell.
Division of cell nucleus?
mitosis
