In a plant in which 2n = 24, what is the total number of chromosomes present at the end of interphase?
A) 6 B) 12 C) 24 D) 48 E) 96
According to data from genome sequences, cytoplasmic dynein is absent in some plants (e.g.,Arabidopsis) and present in others (e.g.,rice).Does this finding surprise you? What else might you do to confirm or refute such a statement? How is it possible that higher plant cells could operate without cytoplasmic dynein?
What does it mean when chromosomes are said to condense during prophase of mitosis? How long are chromosomes after condensation is complete? How big is a typical dividing cell in a root or shoot? If a chromosome were still 20 μm long after condensation, would it be possible for division to pull half of it to one end of the cell and the other half to theother end?
