Detailed explanation-1: -At anaphase each chromatid is considered a single chromosome thus at the end of telophase, 92 chromosomes are present (double of 46 chromosomes of parent cell).
Detailed explanation-2: -Each daughter cell will have half of the original 46 chromosomes, or 23 chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of 2 sister chromatids.
Detailed explanation-3: -A normal human cell has 23 pairs chromosomes. So, a total of 46 chromosomes. At the bivalent stage, each chromosome has two chromatids. So a total of 92 chromatids.
Detailed explanation-4: -The daughter cells are also genetically identical to the parent cell. All of the 46 chromosomes in somatic cells divide and then separate through the process of mitosis. The result is two daughter cells that also contain 46 chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-5: -Once mitosis is complete, the cell has two groups of 46 chromosomes, each enclosed with their own nuclear membrane. The cell then splits in two by a process called cytokinesis, creating two clones of the original cell, each with 46 monovalent chromosomes.
