A mother have 46 chromosomes and a father have 46 chromosomes when they come together in fertilization these chromosomes splits 23 from the mother (egg) and 23 from the father (sperms) and so forming the new zygote which is the baby with 46 chromosomes

∙ 14y agoIt depends on what animal you are talking about. Humans have 46 chromasomes each and supply 23 from each parent to produce a child. Goldfish have 96 chromasomes, and other animals can have fewer or more chromasomes than that.

∙ 10y agoThere are many different ideas on how many chromosomes one parent give. However, normally each parent gives a child 23 chromosomes, one copy of each chromosomes type 1-22 plus one sex chromosomes. Contributions from both parents give the child 23 pairs of chromosomes.

A child with one parent has never born in human being

∙ 13y agoYou have 23 sets of chromosomes for a total of 46. Half from each parent, I suppose. Your 23rd chromosome pair determines your gender (but I'm not explaining all that!).

Do offspring that result from meiosis have twice as many chromosomes as their parents?
No, meosis is a process that ensures that the offspring will have the SAME number of chromosomes as their parents. Hope this helped!
Where do you get chromosomes from?
The chromosomes in a karyotype are from a sample of body cells.
If there is 10 chromosomes how many zygote?
A zygote is the combination of the half DNA data from both "parents" and if each have a total of 10 then the Zygote receives 5 from each parent and ends up with the same as its parents' number of chromosomes.
Is the sex of the offspring determined by the female parents chromosomes?
No. it is determined by the male parent's chromosomes.
How many chromosomes should each sperm and egg have?
1/2 the number present in the cells if the parents.
Do offspring that result from meiosis have twice as many chromosomes as their parents?
No, meosis is a process that ensures that the offspring will have the SAME number of chromosomes as their parents. Hope this helped!
How many chromosomes do they inherit from the parents like is it half or identical?
each parent gives half of its chromosomes, so the offspring will have full amount of chromosomes, two halves.
How many chromosomes do the parents of a child with Down syndrome have?
The parents of a child who has Down syndrome each have the normal amount of chromosomes. The parents have 46, the child has 47.
Where does an organism get its chromosomes?
From its parents!
Where do you get chromosomes from?
The chromosomes in a karyotype are from a sample of body cells.
What is passed from parent to child on sex chromosomes?
A parents sex chromosomes hold DNA. A parents DNA is passed onto the child.
If there is 10 chromosomes how many zygote?
A zygote is the combination of the half DNA data from both "parents" and if each have a total of 10 then the Zygote receives 5 from each parent and ends up with the same as its parents' number of chromosomes.
Why do sexual reproduction results in more genetic variation in a species?
It combines different sets of DNA, instead of replicating the same set.
Is the sex of the offspring is determined by the female parents chromosomes?
No. it is determined by the male parent's chromosomes.
What happen to chromosomes during meiosis?
half of each parents' chromosomes go to the offspring
Is the sex of the offspring determined by the female parents chromosomes?
No. it is determined by the male parent's chromosomes.
How many chromosomes should each sperm and egg have?
1/2 the number present in the cells if the parents.
