The fruit fly has 8 chromosomes (2 n) in each cell. During interphase of Mitosis if the number of chromosomes at G 1 phase is 8, what would be the number of chromosomes after S phase?

Question

The fruit fly has 8 chromosomes (2 n) in each cell. During interphase of Mitosis if the number of chromosomes at G 1 phase is 8, what would be the number of chromosomes after S phase? (A) 8 (B) 16 (C) 4 (D) 32

During mitotic cell cycle if the chromosome number in G 1 phase is 8 , it remains same till Metaphase. Hence, even after S phase same chromosome number 8 is maintained in the cell of fruit fly.

Q. The fruit fly has $8$ chromosomes $(2 n)$ in each cell. During interphase of Mitosis if the number of chromosomes at $G_{1}$ phase is 8, what would be the number of chromosomes after $S$ phase?

8

16

32

During mitotic cell cycle if the chromosome number in $G_{1}$ phase is $8$ , it remains same till Metaphase. Hence, even after $S$ phase same chromosome number $8$ is maintained in the cell of fruit fly.
