Question

question 2 of 10
the microscope image and model show a cell during the anaphase stage of mitosis.
chromatids
spindle fiber
at the end of this stage, how will the cell be prepared to continue through the cell cycle to produce two daughter cells?
a. each side of the cell will have two copies of each chromosome.
b. the two sides of the cell will have identical sets of four chromosomes.
c. four pairs of identical chromosomes will be lined up across the center of the cell.
d. the eight chromosomes will be distributed evenly throughout the cell.

Explanation:

During anaphase of mitosis, sister chromatids are pulled apart by spindle fibers to opposite poles of the cell. Each pole will receive an identical set of chromosomes. This ensures genetic continuity in daughter - cells.

Answer:

B. The two sides of the cell will have identical sets of four chromosomes.
