Polyploidy
Polyploidy is the condition of having multiple complete sets of chromosomes in a cell or organism. This can occur in plants and some animals, and often leads to increased genetic diversity and potentially altered physical characteristics in the organism.
Having too many chromosomes, a condition known as aneuploidy, commonly leads to genetic disorders such as Down syndrome (trisomy 21), Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18), and Patau syndrome (trisomy 13). These conditions can result in a range of physical and developmental challenges, impacting an individual's health and well-being.

I believe it is Meiosis that produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original parent cells.
A gonosome is a type of chromosome that determines the sex of an organism. In many species, including humans, gonosomes are referred to as sex chromosomes, with females typically having two X chromosomes (XX) and males having one X and one Y chromosome (XY). These chromosomes carry genes that influence sexual development and reproductive functions. In contrast, non-sex chromosomes are called autosomes.
Having a single copy of each chromosome is called the haploid condition eg in egg and sperm cells.Having pairs of chromosomes is called the diploidcondition eg in all other body cells (except red blood cells which do not have chromosomes).
Complicated.
Cockroaches typically have a total of 16 chromosomes, arranged in 8 pairs. This includes 8 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes, with males having XY and females having XX. The chromosome number can vary slightly among different species of cockroaches, but 16 is the most common count for many species.
there should be 23 chromosomes in each daughter.
there are 26 chromosomes from each parent that makes up a child. when having Turner's Syndrome the girl only haves 25 from her mother.
