How many chromosomes would you expect to be in the daughter cells of the mosquito after meiosis? When starting with 6​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer would be - three chromosomes.

Explanation:

Meiosis is the type of cell division that takes place in only sex cells and called reduction division as a single parent cell divide into four daughter cell that contains a half number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

The daughter cells are always haploid and have the half number of chromosomes. If an organism has 2n number of in its parent sex cell the daughter cells after meiosis will have n number of chromosomes

Therefore, mosquito = 2n = 6

after meiosis = n = 6/2 = 3

Thus, the correct answer would be - 3 chromosomes.
