There is only one pair fo chromosome in a sex cell.
A cell with one of each kind of chromosome is called a haploid cell. In humans, haploid cells are typically reproductive cells, such as sperm and egg cells. These cells contain a single set of chromosomes (23 in total for humans) instead of the usual two sets found in most cells (diploid).
The 22nd chromosome is called the autosomal chromosome, as it is one of the non-sex chromosomes found in humans. Each cell typically contains two copies of chromosome 22, one inherited from each parent. It contains around 500 to 800 genes involved in various biological functions.
No, chromosomes do not have cells. Chromosomes are made up of DNA and proteins and are found within cells.
Chromosome are found in eukariyotes.They are not in prokaryotes.
The rod-shaped structure of tightly coiled DNA found in the cell nucleus of plants and animals is called a chromosome.
A cell is haploid if it contains exactly half of a species' typical full set of genetic material. Haploid cells are often used in sexual reproduction. In cells, ploidy defines the number of copies of a chromosome found within the cell. The number of the basic set of chromosomes is described as the monoploid number. Most cells within a human (and other animals) are diploid, which means they have two copies of each chromosome. Sex cells, however, are haploid - they have only one copy of each chromosome. This is not exactly the same as monoploidy; rather, one of two differing copies of the same chromosome is in the haploid set. A monoploid cell, however, is likely to be identical to the cell it was copied from. In animals, haploid cells are found only in sex cells. In fungus and certain algae, however, haploid cells are the norm. Male bees, wasps, and ants are haploid because of the way they develop: from unfertilized, haploid eggs. Plants and some algae switch between stages of diploidism, haploidism, and polyploidism. Haploid cells in animals are formed through meiosis, where one chromosome is chosen at random to inhabit the haploid germ cells. In sexual reproduction, haploid cells come together to make a diploid organism. The mixing of chromosomes provided by this encourages theevolution of species without too many wasted mutations. Without the haploid/diploid changes in cells, multicellular organisms would probably not be able to exist in the advanced forms they have today. Hope this helped!
None. Chromosomes are found inside a cell.
Chromosomes are found within the nucleus in eukaryotic cells and within the cytoplasm of prokaryotic cells.
