a)10 chromosomes

b)0 homologous pairs

c)10 chromatids

d)5 dyads

e)10 dyads

f)5 chromosomes

g)5 homologous pairs

h)5 chromatids

A eukaryotic organism's genome is composed of 4 chromosomes. Upon completing Meiosis II, which of the following will be true about a gamete of this organism? (select all correct answers)

a)2 chromosomes

b)2 monads

c)2 chromatids

d)2 homologous pairs

e)4 homologous pairs

f)2 dyads

g)8 chromatids

h)4 chromosomes

i)4 chromatids

j)0 homologous pairs

k)20 chromatids

Answer 1

Question 1

An eukaryotic genome is 10 chromosomes. Therefore,

2n =10

n= 5

At the end of meiosis I, the number of chromosomes reduced to half. The chromatids number is double of the chrimosome number. The dyads consist of two identical chrimatids.

Hence, option   c, d, f are correct

Question 2

At the end of meiois II, chromosomes remain same after meiois I.

Hence, option a, b, f, i are correct.
