Explanation / Answer

Q. A scientist tells you that he has found a cool single-celled organism that is about to divide tells you that the homologous chromosomes are not paired and that it doesn’t look like recombination has occurred. Is the organism dividing by mitosis or meiosis?

Ans- The organism is dividing by mitosis. The homologous chromosomes are paired are during meiosis. But, here chromosomes are not paired, so recombination does not take place.Therefore, the cell does not undergo meiosis.
