There are about 8 million possibilities for the gametes.

How many chromosomes does every organism has?
The number of chromosomes in a organism can vary. Humans have 46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs.
What are chromosomes with same size and shape?
The chromosomes with the same gene content, size, and shape in diploid organism is called homologous chromosomes. The set of chromosome each came from maternal and paternal chromosome.
Suppose an organism's heart cells have 10 chromosomes How many chromosomes will its egg cells have?
One half of each tetrad will have a maternal homolog:(1/2)^10 (one half to the tenth)
The number of possible genetically different gamete for an organism quals 2n where n is the number of pairs of chromosomes if an organism has six pairs of chromosomes how man different gametes can it?

The number of possible genetically different gametes for an organism equals 2N where N is the number of pairs of chromosomes. If an organism has four pairs of chromosomes how many differ?

If an organism had 4 pairs of chromosomes how many different gametes can it produce?
For a species with three pair of chromosomes how many gametic combinations are possible?

What are chromosomes with same size and shape?
The chromosomes with the same gene content, size, and shape in diploid organism is called homologous chromosomes. The set of chromosome each came from maternal and paternal chromosome.
True or false in humans each pair of the 22 maternal autosomes has a homologous paternal chromosome?
False, A haploid organism only has one set of chromosomes, so it has no homologous chromosomes.

What is the probability that in an organism with a haploid number of 15 a sperm will be formed that contains all 15 chromosomes whose centromeres were derived from maternal homologs?

The number of possible genetically different gametes for an organism equals 2N, where N is the number of pairs of chromosomes. If an organism has four pairs of chromosomes, how many different gametes can it produce?
16 (apex)
How many pairs of homologous chromosomes would be in an offspring?
Since a somatic cell (body cell) has 2n sets of chromosomes, and a gamete has n sets of chromosomes, then in this case: 18 = n, so 2n = 36. This organism has 36 chromosomes in its somatic cells.
The number of possible genetically different gametes for an organism equals 2N where N is the number of pairs of chromosomes. If an organism has four pairs of chromosomes how many differ?
32
Where does an organism receive its chromosomes from?
An organisms gets its chromosomes from its parent(s).
How may chromosomes does sperm cells have?
Well, every species is different as different species have different numbers of chromosomes. So it would depend on the organism. But, if you are asking about humans. Humans have 46 chromosomes. So a human sperm would have 23 chromosomes.
