The mother gives the egg and the father gives the the sperm and wine they come to get it can make a zygote in other words the baby

Both cells in Chromosomes and in Sexually CELLS contain the Same Number.

How does the number of chromosomes in metaphase of mitosis compare to the number of duplicated chromosomes in metaphase 2 of meiosis?
because in metaphase 2 of meiosis there are 2 different cells, which means the chromosomes duplicated
How does the number of chromosomes in gametes of an organism that reproduces sexually differ from the numbers of chromosomes in other cells?
Unlike somatic (body) cells, gametes have two time the number of chromosomes as body cells. Gametes (2n). Body cells (n). For example, human 46 chromosomes in gamete cells but half of that (23) in body cells.
How does the number of chromosomes in a zygote compare with the number of chromosomes in a body cell?
Double.Each gamete (sex cell) has one copy of each chromosome. Somatic (body) cells have 2 copies.
Where are the human cells with 46 chromosomes found?
In humans, the diploid number (or 2n) is 46. Somatic cells contain 2n number of chromosomes. Somatic cells are those that make up the body. Every cells that makes up every organ contains 2n number of chromosomes. Gametes (or sex cells) contain haploid (n) number of chromosomes
How do the number of chromosomes compare in gametes and somatic cells?
I will assume that you mean human cells. Somatic cells are diploid (2n), containing two sets of chromosomes, one of paternal, one of maternal origin. Gametes, on the other hand, are haploid (n), with a single set of chromosomes, ie. half as many as the somatic cell. Now, the haploid chromosome number (n) is characteristic of the species, and in humans this number happens to be 23. Therefore a human gamete has 23 chromosomes, and a human somatic cell 23 pairs, or 46 chromosomes.
How does the number of chromosome in a persons gametes compare with the numbers of chromosomes in the body cells?
There are half as many chromosomes in gametes than in normal body cells.
Compare the numbers of chromosomes in different species?
The chromosome number is specific for each type of organism. The exact chromosome number must be maintained for the species to continue. This means that as cells reproduce, the new cells must have the same number of chromosomes as did the original cells
How does the number of chromosomes in sex cells compare to the number of chromosomes in cells formed during mitosis?
it compares by 50% or by half of chromosomes because there are 23 sex cells and 46 chromosomes
How does the number in chromosomes in sex cells compare to the number of chromosomes in cells formed during mitosis?
it compares by 50% or by half of chromosomes because there are 23 sex cells and 46 chromosomes
How do the number of chromosomes in a female scorpion's egg cells compare with the number in her body (somatic) cells?
There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.
How does the number of chromosome in sex cells compare to the number of chromosomes in cells formed during mitosis?
it compares by 50% or by half of chromosomes because there are 23 sex cells and 46 chromosomes
How does the number of chromosomes in sex cell compare to the number of chromosomes in cells formed during mitosis?
it compares by 50% or by half of chromosomes because there are 23 sex cells and 46 chromosomes
Compare the number of chromosomes in a human skin cell to the number of chromosomes in a human egg cell?
yes it has 23 cells.
How does the number of chromosomes in a grasshoppers body cell compare to the number in its sex cell?
sex cells(gametes) are haploid in nature as compared to body cells(somatic cells) thus the number of chromosomes in a sex cell of a grasshopper is half the number of chromosomes in a body cell
How does a number of chromosomes in a person's sex cells compare with the number of chromosomes in the body cells?
In the sex cells you only have half of the number of chromosomes- 23 instead of 46 which is what you have in your other body cells This is because when the sperm fertilizes the egg, the two nuclei fuse together and the chromosomes combine so you then have the right number for normal body cells to develop in the baby.

What did Sutton observe about the relative numbers of chromosomes in the body cells and sex cells of grasshoppers?
body cells of a grasshopper has 24 chromosomes and 12 chromosomes in the sex cells so as many body cell chromosomes you have you will have half that number of chromosomes in your sex cells.
