- A diploid cell has 15 picograms of DNA in G₁ phase. If this cell is a germ line cell that undergoes meiosis, how much DNA will each daughter cell contain at the end of meiosis I? How much DNA will each daughter cell contain at the end of meiosis II?

- What is happening during this phase of meiosis? A.)Mitosis is complete and 4 diploid daughter cells have been produced. B.)Telophase II C.)Meiosis II is complete and 4 haploid daughter cells have been produced. D.)Meiosis I is complete and 4 diploid daughter cells have been produced E.)Meiosis II is complete and 4 diploid daughter cells have been producedarrow_forwardAs two students, who will be designated Student J and Student K, were studying together, they argued about the differences between Mitosis and Meiosis (both Meiosis I and Meiosis II). Student J maintained that it if they were looking at very good slides under the microscope and concentrated on Metaphase, it would be possible to tell the difference between the cells undergoing Mitosis, the cells undergoing Meiosis I, and the cells undergoing Meiosis II. Student K said it would be impossible to tell which nuclear division was occurring. Assume there are three unlabeled sets of very good slides of the cells of the common pea plant with one set showing Mitosis, one set showing Meiosis I, and one set showing Meiosis II. To repeat, the slides are unlabeled so the students don’t know which process is occurring in which set. However, the students know that the common pea plant has 14 total chromosomes (or 7 pairs of chromosomes). Explain carefully what Student J would be looking for at the…arrow_forwardMitosis produces 2 daughter cells that are identical to the starting cell.
