If 2n = 10 what will be the number of chromatids in each daughter cell after meiosis-I?

A. 5

B. 20

C. 10

D. 2

Answer: Option C

Solution (By Examveda Team)

If 2n = 10, the number of chromatids in each daughter cell after meiosis-I will be 10.
Meiosis is reductional division, thus after division chromosome number in each daughter cell is halved.
Thus, the chromosome number in each daughter cell after meiosis-1 will be 5 if 2n= 10 and therefore, the number of chromatids will be 10.
