How does the number of chromosomes in anaphase differ from the number of chromosomes in the other stages of mitosis?

Question

anonymous · Answer

If u r talking about mitosis, there is the prophase, pro metaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase........ Remember that in metaphase, just after the metaphase, where there is the metaphase plate..... The chromosomes are " separated", they are going to different poles, with the help of micro tubules..... Does this help?

Correction: it should read... Just after the PROMETAPHASE...

not really. can you be a little bit more spcific? please

anonymous · Answer

Basically, before anaphase, the chromosomes are diploid..... But when the chromosomes are separated in anaphase, it is haploid.

anonymous · Answer

Nd check images on google for haploid and diploid... Nd just look at the stages of mitosis.... You'll know what I mean if you look at it
