What type of DNA do daughters inherit from both parents but sons only inherit from mothers?

Daughters inherit an X-chromosome from each parent but sons receive an X-chromosome only from the mother. The father supplies a Y-chromosome to make the child a boy.


What happens to chromosomes after mitosis?

After mitosis, the sister chromatids that make up each chromosome separate and are divided into two new daughter cells. Each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes identical to the original cell.


What is an individual strand of chorosome called?

An individual strand of chromosome is called a chromatid. Chromatids are the two identical DNA molecules that make up a duplicated chromosome. During cell division, chromatids separate from each other and are allocated to each daughter cell.

What is chromatid?

A chromatid is one half of a duplicated chromosome, joined together by a centromere. Each chromatid contains identical genetic material and is essential for proper chromosome segregation during cell division.


How many chromosos are in each cell after meiosis?

After meiosis is complete, each resulting cell typically contains half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. This means that in humans, each cell after meiosis would have 23 chromosomes, as opposed to the usual 46 chromosomes in a somatic cell.


do genes make chromosome?

no


How many chromatids are involved in crossing over of a homologous pair of chromosomes?

Crossing over involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Each homologous pair consists of four chromatids (two from each chromosome), and crossing over occurs between a pair of chromatids from each homologous chromosome. This results in the exchange of genetic material between the chromatids.


How many chromatids have one chromosome?

Two (2). Before DNA replication, each chromosome is composed of a single chromatid. After replication, but before separation of the chromatids during anaphase, this is true.
