Are homologous chromosomes present in both mitosis and meiosis?
Yes, homologous chromosomes are present in both mitosis and meiosis. In mitosis, homologous chromosomes do not pair up, while in meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up during prophase I.
Does homologous pair contain 2 chromosomes or the 4 chromatids after doubling?
It depends on if it was during the process of mitosis or mitosis. And, how many chromosomes it began with.
The two chromosomes in each matching pair in a karyotype are?
The two chromosomes in each matching pair in a karyotype are homologous chromosomes. These homologous chromosomes carry genes for the same traits at the same loci. One chromosome in the pair is inherited from the mother and the other from the father.
What is the name given to a pair of chromosomes that have matching locations for alternate forms of the same gene?
homologous chromosomes
What is another word for matching chromosomes?
Homologous is the word used to describe matching chromosomes, with a homolog being a pair of homologous chromosomes.
What is a pair of corresponding chromosomes called?
A pair of corresponding chromosomes is called homologous chromosomes. They are similar in size and carry genes that control the same traits. One chromosome in the pair is inherited from each parent.
Do homologous chromosomes pair in mitosis?
Homologous chromosomes do not pair in mitosis. Mitosis is the process of cell division where a cell duplicates its DNA and splits into two identical daughter cells, so the homologous chromosomes do not need to pair up like they do in meiosis.
How do homologous chromosomes pair up during mitosis?
During mitosis, homologous chromosomes do not pair up. Instead, they separate and move to opposite ends of the cell. Homologous chromosomes only pair up during meiosis, the process of cell division that produces gametes.
How do homologous chromosomes behave differently during mitosis and meiosis?
During mitosis, homologous chromosomes do not pair up and exchange genetic material, while in meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up and undergo genetic recombination. This results in different behavior and outcomes for homologous chromosomes in the two processes.
Normally how many chromosomes are required to determine the outward expression of a trait?
homologous pair
How many homologous chromosomes do males have?
Males have 44 homologous chromosomes, or 22 pairs. Females are 46 and 23 respectively since they have homologous sex chromosomes.
What is the cell with a pair of homologous chromosomes?
we call it diploid
