Which of the following cell types undergo meiosis? 2. A) Somatic cells B) Onion root tip cells C) Whitefish blastula cells D) Germ line cells E) None of the above 2. What is the difference between monop and haploid? Which of the following is true of replicated chromosomes? 3. A) They contain sister chromatids. B) They are in dyad form. C) The have one centromere.

( Presence of third copy of 21 chromosome)

2Q): correct answer = germline cells

3Q). all the above
