Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -If the egg cell has 10 chromosomes (haploid ‘n’), then the number of chromosomes present in diploid cell (2n) is 20.
Detailed explanation-2: -The diploid chromosome number is 10. So, the haploid chromosome number will be= 10/2= 5.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: An organism with a diploid chromosome number of 10 will duplicate the chromosomes during interphase to form 20 sister chromatids. Each of the duplicated chromosomes will exist as two sister chromatids joined together by their centromere.
