Q.10 A Above shown diagram is undergoing meiosis. According to diagram it is anaphase II where sister chromatid seperation occurs and haploid gametes are formed.
Diploid number of this cell is 12.
Q.10 B Haploid number of this cell is 6. Meiosis is equational division first and then reductional division. During which haploid gametes are formed.This one haploid gamete fuse with other haploid gamete to make diploid zygote.
Q.11 A As stated in question, somatic cell contains 16 chromosomes. Somatic cells are diploid. So diploid number for this animal is 16.
