Bmat specimen paper


Hey guys! Hope everyone is doing well!
After meiosis, isn’t the chromosomes number half the original number, I chose A but answer sheet says it is D ;(( Is it because they ask for the total number of chromosomes after the entire cell division but not for a single cell?

Hi!

Yes i think it’s because they are asking for the total
so 1 testis cell will give 4 x 23 chromosomes = 92 chromosomes

The correct answer would be 23 if they asked how many chromosmes do each offspring have

Hope this helps!!
