What is the hiploid number of an individual in which four homologous pairs separate during anaphase 1?

The haploid number (n) of an individual is determined by the number of homologous pairs of chromosomes that separate during meiOSis. If four homologous pairs separate during anaphase I, that means there are four pairs of chromosomes, resulting in a haploid number of n = 4. Therefore, the total number of chromosomes in the diploid (2n) state would be 8.
