A human cell that has gone through the second division of meiosis will contain how many chromosomes?
A cell containing 40 chromatids at the beginning of meiosis would at its completion produce cells containing how many chromosomes?
Human cells normally have 46 chromosomes. For each of the following stages, state the number of chromosomes present in a human cell:
1. Metaphase of mitosis
2. Metaphase I of meiosis
3. Telophase of mitosis
4. Telophase I of meiosis
