∙ 14y agoI'm doing this for science homework. Yahoo.com says that there are 12 chromosomes in a potato plant. another wiki answer said it was 99999999.998645 or something like 8645. I don't really know.

The number of chromosomes in the egg of a potato plant is 24 the number of chromosomes in the cells of the potato root is?
12
How do potato cells differ from onion cells?
No, Onion cells does not contain chloroplast
How many chromosomes does a tribbles body cells normally contain?
9 chromosomes
Why do chromosomes double during prophase?
When a cell divides, each of the daughter cells should contain a copy of the entire genome. This is the reason why a copy of every chromosome has to be made so that one half can go into each daughter cell. If the parent call contained 23 chromosomes for example, during the synthesis phase of the cell cycle (of which prophase is a part), the total number of chromosomes will increase to 46 since each chromosome will be copied. When the cell divides to create two daughter cells, each daughter cell will contain 23 chromosomes.
When a body cell divides through the process of mitosis the chromosomes in the daughter cells?
Each daughter cell has 46 chromosomes, or you can say 23 pairs of chromosomes.

What cell types contains the least number of chromosomes?
Sex cells contain half the number of chromosomes that body cells contain.
Through the process of meiosis sex cells are produced that are?
Haploid cells, as opposed to diploid cells. Haploid cells contain only 23 chromosomes, but normal diploid cells contain 46 chromosomes.

Why does a cell make a copy of itself before it divides?
So that the new cells have the same chromosomes as the parent cells.
How many single chromosomes do humans have in their body cells?
Human cells contain forty-six chromosomes each. An exception to this is gametes (oocytes and sperm), which contain twenty-three chromosomes each.
Does each egg and sperm cell contain a full set of 46 chromosomes?
No. These cells contain only half the number of chromosomes as the other cells of the body. Each egg and sperm cell contain only 23 chromosomes.
