How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are found in human body cells?
Human cells have 23 homologous pairs. They also must go through meiosis before that. Females have 2 X chromosomes, while Males have an X and a Y chromosome. That's why the males cells decide the gender of the child.
What best describes chromosomes that contain genes for the same characteristics?
Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes are called homologous chromosomes.
Humans are a diploid species what does this say about their chromosomes?
They have homologous chromosomes
What are the matching pairs of chromosomes in the diploid cell called?
They are called homologous chromosomes (but can also be referred to as homologues or homologs).
How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are in a fruit fly somatic cell?
5 homologous chromosomes are in a fruit fly somatic cells.

What best describes chromosomes that contain genes for the same characteristics?
Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes are called homologous chromosomes.
Humans are a diploid species what does this say about their chromosomes?
They have homologous chromosomes
What are the chromosomes that carry the same sets of genes?
Homologous Chromosomes.- for fact.
Why do which best describes the sex chromosomes in humans?
Humans have 22 pairs of homologous non-sex chromosomes (called autosomes), and one pair of sex chromosomes, making a total of 46 chromosomes in a genetically normal human.Each member of a pair is inherited from one of the two parents. In addition to the 22 pairs of homologous autosomes, female humans have a homologous pair of sex chromosomes (two Xs), while males have an X and a Y chromosome.
How many chromosomes are in a homologous pair?
in a homologous chromosome there are two chromosomes ( a chromosome and a sister chromosome)
How many chromosome do most human cells contain?
Humans have 22 pairs of homologous non-sex chromosomes (called autosomes), and one pair of sex chromosomes, making a total of 46 chromosomes in a genetically normal human.Each member of a pair is inherited from one of the two parents. In addition to the 22 pairs of homologous autosomes, female humans have a homologous pair of sex chromosomes (two Xs),while males have an X and a Y chromosome.
What are the matching pairs of chromosomes in the diploid cell called?
They are called homologous chromosomes (but can also be referred to as homologues or homologs).
Why don't the sex chromosomes have true homologous partners like the autosomes?
Well... they can. In females (who contain XX chromosomes) there is a homologous pair of chromosomes. In males (XY) the Y chromosome must be in existence to activate the development of male characteristics... Otherwise they'd be females.
How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are in a fruit fly somatic cell?
5 homologous chromosomes are in a fruit fly somatic cells.
Which type of chromosomes contain the same genes in the same location?
It is Homologous chromosomes because they carry thesame genes and homones.
How many homologous chromosomes in a haploid organism?
There are no homologous chromosomes in a haploid cell, as a haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes. One member of each pair of homologous chromosomes comes from one set, and the other member comes from the second set, so homologous chromosomes only exist in diploid cells.
