If a cell has 8 duplicated chromosomes at metaphase of mitosis, how many chromosomes will it have during anaphase? how many chromosomes will each daughter nucleus have after telophase?

a. 8 and 8
b. 8 and 16
c. 16 and 8
d. 4 and 8
e. 8 and 4

e. 8 and 4

Explanation:

Mitosis is a process of cell division through which a mother cell generates two daughter cells of the same ploidia. In order to do this, the cell replicates all its chromosomes before mitosis.

For example,  if a diploid cell contains 4 chromosomes, during mitosis this cell will have 8 chromosmes that will be equally distributed at the end of the process -during the telophase- in the two daughter cells: each with 4 chromosomes. Metaphase is a phase within mitosis that precedes telophase, therefore, in the same example, the mother cell that has not yet divided contains still 8 chromosomes.

answer: like 2%?
