    Answer: It will have 36 chromosomes.

    Explanation:

    Mitosis is type of cell divisioin in which a single cell I. e the parent cell divide to produce two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. The daughter cells have the same genetic component or chromosomes as the parent cell. If the parent cell has 36 chromosomes, the daughter cell will also have 36 chromosomes.

    36 chromosomes in each cell

    Explanation:

    Mitosis is an equational division which means that it does not reduce or change the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells. Mitosis in a single parent cell produces two daughter cells each having the same DNA content and the number of chromosomes is present in the parent cell. Each chromosome after the S phase has two sister chromatids that separate from each other and are segregated to the opposite poles of the cell during anaphase of mitosis. Therefore, a cell with 36 chromosomes will form two daughter cells after one round of mitosis. Each daughter cell would have 36 chromosomes.
