The diagram below represents a stage in cell division. Study the same and answer the questions that follow :(i) Identify the stage of cell division. (ii) Name the parts labelled A, B, C and D. (iii) What is the unique feature observed in this stage ? (iv) Where does this type of cell division usually occur ? (v) How many daughter cells are formed from this type of cell division ? (vi) Is the dividing cell shown a plant or an animal cell ? Give a reason to support your answer.

Answer»

(i) Anaphase. 

(ii) Part A = Spindle Fiber 

Part B = Cell wall 

Part C = Chromatid 

Part D = Centromere 

(iii) Unique feature of this stage : Chromosome are divide into two parts and chromatids are separated which moves towards opposite pole. 

(iv) Somatic cells. 

(v) Two daughter cells are formed from this kind of cell division. 

(vi) Dividing cell shown here is a plant cell because cell wall is clearly visible here which is a unique feature of the plant cells.
