Mitosis is also called ‘equational division’ because:
| 1. | the number of chromosomes in both daughter cells are the same |
| 2. | the sum of the number of chromosomes in two daughter cells is equal to the number of chromosomes in the parent cell |
| 3. | each progeny cell receives only one set of chromosomes from the parent cell |
| 4. | the number of chromosomes in the parent and the progeny cells is the same |

The start of the second phase of mitosis, metaphase, is marked by:
| 1. | complete disintegration of the nuclear envelope |
| 2. | alignment of chromosomes at the equatorial plate |
| 3. | de-condensation of chromatin |
| 4. | reappearance of the nucleolus |

Consider the given two statements:
| I: | Morphology of chromosomes is best studied at metaphase |
| II: | At this stage, a chromosome is made up of two sister chromatids, held together at the centromere |
1. Both I and II are True and II explains I
2. Both I and II are True but II does not explain I
3. I is True but II is False
4. I is False but II is True
