number correct:14 number incorrect: 7
what is shown to the right?
a. anaphase ii and cytokinesis
b. telophase i
c. metaphase ii
d. prophase ii

Explanation:

To determine the correct phase, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Anaphase II involves sister chromatids separating, and cytokinesis is cell division. The image doesn't show separation or full cell division.
• Option B: Telophase I involves two cells forming with a haploid number of chromosomes, but the chromosomes here are still condensed and aligned, not typical of Telophase I.
• Option C: Metaphase II has chromosomes (each with two sister chromatids) aligned at the equator of the cell. The image shows chromosomes aligned in the middle of each cell, consistent with Metaphase II.
• Option D: Prophase II involves chromatin condensing into chromosomes, but the chromosomes here are already aligned, not in the condensing stage.

Answer:

C. Metaphase II
