If there are 20 centromeres in a cell at anaphase, how many chromosomes are there in each daughter cell following cytokinesis?Group of answer choices10204030

The answer is 20.

Here's the step-by-step explanation:

1. Centromeres are part of a chromosome, and each chromosome has one centromere.

2. Anaphase is a stage in cell division where the chromosomes separate. At this stage, each chromosome splits at the centromere, creating two sister chromatids.

3. Each sister chromatid has its own centromere, so if there are 20 centromeres at anaphase, that means there are 20 sister chromatids.

4. Cytokinesis is the final stage in cell division where the cell splits into two daughter cells. Each daughter cell receives an equal number of chromosomes.

5. Therefore, if there were 20 sister chromatids (and thus 20 centromeres) at anaphase, there would be 20 chromosomes in each daughter cell following cytokinesis.
