If there are 8 centromeres in metaphase, how many centromeres will be present in anaphase? a. 4b. 8c. 16d. 32

B.8

Explanation:

In a dividing cell, each chromosome consists of two chromatids. Both the chromatids remain attached at the centromeres. If in a dividing cell there are 8 centromeres, indicates that dividing cell has 8 chromosomes. Chromosomes separate during anaphase. The cell is still dividing and not separated into two daughter cells. Therefore, if the cell has 8 centromeres during metaphase, the same number of centromeres will be present during anaphase. Thus, 8 is the correct answer.

endocrine glands secrete hormones into the blood stream near them; the hormones then travel in our bloodstream until it reaches its destination, called a target cell, in distance parts of the body. in the target tissue, hormones lock onto the target’s plasma membrane, called the receptor site.
