Question

How many chromosomes do the daughter cells of a liver cell with 88 chromosomes have?

Answer 1

Each daughter cell resulting from the division of a liver cell with 88 chromosomes will have 88 chromosomes, as somatic cells undergo mitosis which creates genetically identical cells with the same number of chromosomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a liver cell of an organism has 88 chromosomes, then we are looking at a diploid cell, because somatic cells like liver cells are typically diploid, containing two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent. In eukaryotic organisms, somatic cells divide through the process of mitosis to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell and maintain the same chromosome number as the parent cell. Therefore, each daughter cell resulting from the division of a liver cell with 88 chromosomes will also have 88 chromosomes.

Answer 2

Answer:The daughter cells each have

24

chromosomes.

Explanation:During interphase, the DNA in chromatin is replicated . In prophase, the chromatin condenses into chromosomes. Since the DNA was replicated during interphase, each chromosome in prophase is a copy of one chromosome. The chromosomes are now called sister chromatids and are held together at the middle, called the centromere.
