a. without centromeric fission. b. with chromatids together. c. into opposite daughter cells. d. a,b & c are all true.

3. If a pair of chromosomes at metaphase I contain the alleles A & A in one chromosome and a & a in the other chromosome the first daughter cells will contain a. either a & a or A & A
b. either A & a or a & A c. A & a and A & a
