Explanation / Answer

1During the stages of meiosis and mitosis, the no. of chromosomes changes by doubling during anaphase by sepration of sister chromatids. During meiosis-1 the chromosome number does not change until after telophase -1 is completed.

12. 2n=62 a.No of DNA molecules in prophase of mitosis- 124 b. Prophase-|| of meiosis- 62. c. Anaphase-| of meiosis- 124. d. G1 phase- 62.

13. 2n=24 a. No. of telomeres- 24×4=96 b. No.of chromatids- 48. c. No of chromosomes- 24

14. 2n=208. a. No. of chromosomes in Anaphase of mitosis- 208×2= 416.

b. Anaphase-|| - 208 c. Telophase-| - 208 d. Telophase || - 208
