Micro tubules are hollow tubes 24 to 25 nanometers in diameter composed of 13 parallel rows.
A tubulin hetero dimer is 8 nanometers in length.
The human somatic cell has 46 chromosomes and 25 micro tubules are attached to each one. Ana phase usually takes from 6 minutes and moves each chromosome about 2 micrometers.

1,How many tubulin subunits are disassembled from micro tubules during the anaphase?

2,What is the rate of tubulin dissolution in a mitosing human cell?

I have no idea what I should do first, please help me.
Thank you.
