if a cell starts out in g2 phase with 12 chromosomes, how many chromosomes would you expect in each of the daughter cells if one of the chromosomes failed to separate in anaphase? remember that if two chromatids are still attached at the centromere (as they would be in this case), we count them as one chromosome.

Respuesta :

If a cell has 12 chromosomes when it enters the g2 phase, one daughter cell will have 11 and the other will have 12.

Describe chromosomes:

A chromosome is a long DNA molecule that houses all or some of the genetic code of an organism. Histones, which act as packing proteins for most eukaryotic chromosomes, collaborate with chaperone proteins to bind to and condense the DNA molecule to maintain the molecule's integrity.

What are the two purposes of chromosomes?

Chromosomes are made of proteins, primarily histones and DNA.

Chromosomes have a specific purpose.

  • Transporting genetic material from one generation to the next is the main function of chromosomes.
  • The processes of growth, reproduction, repair, and regeneration all depend on chromosomes and are essential to their survival.
