Is the result of a human cell division two offspring nuclei each containing 23 chromosomes?

Broadly speaking, yes. It should be pointed out, however, that mature red blood cells are somatic cells which contain no chromosomes at all. Also, osteoclasts are somatic cells which contain multiple nuclei and thus multiple pairs of homologous chromosomes (although they only have 23 homologous chromosomes in any given nucleus).

∙ 12y agoThe result of a somatic human cell division is 2 offspring nuclei each containing 46 chromosomes; however, in the case of sex cell division, indeed the result is nuclei with only 23 chromosomes each.
A somatic cell is any cell other than one that gives rise to sperm or egg.

What is the Distribution of chromosomes into separate and equal nuclei is referred to as?
The answer is mitosis- The orderly division of the nucleus of a cell that ensures that each new nucleus has the same number and kind of chromosomes as the original nucleus. The process includes the replication of chromosomes and the distribution of the two sets of chromosomes into two separate and equal nuclei.
Cell division resulting in two new nuclei having the same number of chromosomes as the original nucleus is called?
fission
The main results of meiosis?
Meiosis is a process of reduction division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half through the separation of homologous chromosomes in a diploid cell.
Are chromosomes visible when stained?
Chromosomes can be seen using a light microscope (LM). Mitotic cells can be easily visualised. The study of chromosomes using LM is termed Karyology, the chromosomes are prepared by a variety of techniques and analyses can be performed.
A cell containing 92 chromatids at metaphase of mitosis at its completion how many chromosomes will be made?
Each chromatid is a doubled chromosome. At telophase a single chromosome from each chromatid is pulled to its new nucleus, leaving two new nuclei with 46 chromosomes each.
What is the process of eukaryotic nuclear division in which two nuclei with identical sets of chromosomes are formed.?
meiosis
A cell containing 92 chromatids at metaphase of mitosis would at its completion produce two nuclei each containing how many chromosomes?
46
How Mitosis happens in what type of cells?
a cell division: nucleus divides into nuclei that has the same number of chromosomes

What are chromosomes and where can they be seen?
Chromosomes are thread-like structures found in the nuclei of cells comprised of DNA and various proteins. They are only visible during cell division (mitosis)
Cell division resulting in two new nuclei having the same number of chromosomes as the original nucleus is called?
fission
What HAPPENS DUR?
Mitosis is the division of the chromosomes in the nuclei. There are 5 stages in mitosis. Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Division of body cell nuclei?
The threadlike bodies of cells within the nucleus are called chromosomes, also known as DNA. They become visible during the division process.
What happens durring mitosis?
Mitosis is the division of the chromosomes in the nuclei. There are 5 stages in mitosis. Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
How is mitosis different from mitosis?
During meiosis there is pairing between homologous chromosomes for exchange of chromatin material by crossing over and these chromosomes get separated in first stage of meiotic division, thus half of the chromosomes separate at each pole; the second stage of meiosis is more or less similar to mitotic division. At the end of meiosis 4 daughter nuclei are formed whereas in mitosis only 2 daughter nuclei are formed without reduction in the number of chromosomes.
