Question
At the metaphase plate, what is the maximum number of alignments is?
- 2n
- 3n
- N
- 4n
Hint:
46 chromosomes align during metaphase in cell division in humans.
The correct answer is: 2n
- The cell division occurs by mitosis or meiosis
- The cell division is divided into 4 stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase
- During the metaphase stage, the chromosomes will align at the center of the dividing cell
- 2n number of chromosomes will align at metaphase during cell division
- In humans the number of chromosomes will be 46 with 92 individual chromatids that are produced during replication
