A parenchymatous cell has 20 units of DNA. It starts to divide mitotically. How many units of DNA would it have
during anaphase, and

Solution

During mitosis equal division takes place such that the cell divides into a replica so during anaphase when the chromosomes have separated and migrated to the opposite poles, double the number of DNA will be present in the cell. SO, 20*2 =40.
So, the correct ansswer is '40'.
