What can be assumed about the parent cell if, after asexual reproduction, the daughter cell has 24 chromosomes? A) The parent cell has 12 chromosomes. B) The parent cell has 24 chromosomes. C) The parent cell has 48 chromosomes. D) The parent cell has 76 chromosomes.
Asexual reproduction means that the cell has "cloned" itself, and will therefore have the same number of chromosomes as its daughter, thus option B is correct.
