Scelta multipla
Consider a diploid cell that is 2n = 6. This diagram shows the cell in which phase of cell division?
A
Telophase of meiosis II
B
Anaphase of meiosis I
C
Metaphase of mitosis
D
Prophase of mitosis
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the context: A diploid cell with 2n = 6 means it has 6 chromosomes in total, arranged in 3 pairs.
Recall the phases of mitosis: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. Each phase has distinct characteristics.
In Metaphase of mitosis, chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plane, and each chromosome is attached to spindle fibers from opposite poles.
In Prophase of mitosis, chromosomes condense and become visible, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and spindle fibers begin to form.
Compare the characteristics of the cell in the diagram with the descriptions of each phase to determine that the alignment of chromosomes at the equatorial plane indicates Metaphase of mitosis.
