Detailed explanation-1: -If a cell has 24 chromosomes before cell division then daughter cell resulting from mitotic division will have 24 chromosomes while daughter cell resulting from the meiotic division will contain 12 chromosomes each.
Detailed explanation-2: -After meiosis, the daughter cells will be haploid and will only have half the species number of chromosomes, in this case, 12 chromosomes. If the parent diploid cell has 24 chromosomes prior to meiosis, then all of the daughter cells will only have 12 chromosomes after the two rounds of meiosis.
Detailed explanation-3: -If any organism has a haploid of 24 chromosomes, the total number of chromosomes in its diploid stage will be 48 chromosomes ( 24x2)
Detailed explanation-4: -Complete answer: If a cell has 24 chromosomes and it undergoes mitosis to create two cells, then the daughter cells also have 24 chromosomes each. Mitosis is a process of division of cells where a parent cell divides into two daughter cells each of which is genetically just like the parent cell.
Detailed explanation-5: -Definition. Having two sets of chromosomes; e.g., a plant with a diploid chromosome number of 2n = 24 has two sets of 12 each (one from the paternal and the other from the maternal parent).
