Suppose that at the beginning of s phase, a skin cell (in some species of mammal) has 8 chromosomes total. how many chromosomes will each cell produced from this cell have after mitosis and cytokinesis are complete

The correct answer will be- 8 chromosomes

Explanation:

The division of the cell in organism takes place in a cyclic series of events called cell cycle. The cell cycle is divided into two phases: Interphase (G1, S and G2 phase) and Mitotic phase followed by cytokinesis.

During mitosis, a type of cell division which forms two genetically similar daughter cells from a parent cell does not change the number of the chromosomes after mitosis and remains same so is also known as the equational division.

Since, mitosis produces the daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes therefore, a cell with 8 chromosomes after mitosis produces two daughter cells with 8 chromosomes each cell.

Thus, 8 chromosomes are the correct answer.
