Question

in humans, after telophase i and cytokinesis i in meiosis, how many chromatids are present in each of the resulting cells? 0 23 46 92

Explanation:

Step1: Recall human chromosome number

Humans have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) before meiosis.

Step2: Understand meiosis I

In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate. After telophase I and cytokinesis I, each cell has 23 chromosomes. But each chromosome consists of 2 chromatids.

Step3: Calculate chromatid number

Number of chromatids per cell = 23 chromosomes × 2 chromatids per chromosome = 46 chromatids.

Answer:

46
