Detailed explanation-1: -Each daughter cell will have 30 chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-2: -In mitosis, the resulting daughter cell contains an equal number of chromosomes as the original cell. Therefore, if a cell has 50 chromosomes, in the end, the daughter cells will also have 50 chromosomes each.
Detailed explanation-3: -When a diploid cell having 48 chromosomes divides, the four haploid daughter cells are produced at the end of meiosis II. Each daughter cell contains half of the chromosomes in number as that of the parent cell. Thus, it can be concluded that daughter cells produced from the parent cell will have 24 chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are 23 pairs of chromosomes in somatic cells; one member of each pair is paternal (from the father) and one maternal (from the mother). There are 22 matched pairs of autosomal chromosomes, plus one pair of sex chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-5: -If the diploid cell had 50 chromosome, the number of chromosome will be reduced to half in anaphase 1 and become 25.
