The images above represents various cells undergoing cell division. The different shades of the colorful chromosomes inside a cell represent homologous chromosomes. For example, the shaded pink chromosomes are homologous to the unshaded pink chromosomes, and the shaded blue are homologous to the unshaded blue. 

 

a). Use the letters in the image above the different cells to list all of the cells that are diploid:

b) For a cell that has a total of 6 chromosomes (3 chromosomes from mom and 3 chromosomes from dad): Which cell above accurately shows this cell at Metaphase of mitosis?

c) Which of the above cells contains 3 homologous pairs of chromosomes? 

d)  Which of the above cells undergoing meiosis has 3 homologous pairs of chromosomes?

e) List all of the cells above that are in meiosis 

f) For a cell that has a total of 8 chromosomes (4 chromosomes from mom and 4 chromosomes from dad): Which cell above accurately shows this cell at Metaphase I of meiosis?
