In organisms where meiosis occurs to create gametes, sex cells are made to have half as many chromosomes as regular body cells have. For example, a human man's sex cell or gamete would have 23 chromosomes and the non-sex cells in his body (the ones that aren't produced in his testes) would contain 46 chromosomes. This is for the purpose of creating progeny that have an increased variety of genetic information. This is possible because the male gamete combines with the female gamete to create a whole new organism with a new combination of genetic information that has the correct number of chromosomes.

Suppose that for an organism 2n 8 how many chromosomes do the organism's gametes contain?
4. Two gametes get together to make something new. Just double up!
If a diploid organism has a genome consisting of twenty two chromosomes its gametes will have how many chromosomes?
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes - therefore if the diploid number is 22, the gametes would have 11 chromosomes.
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
How many chromosomes will an organism have in its body cells if the gametes contain 25 chromesones?
Mostly likely 50. Most organisms are diploid (2n), gametes are haploid (1n). If there are 25 chromosomes in the gamete, 25x2 = 50.
How many chromosomes are in a haploid gametes?
23 chromosomes
A particular organism has 40 chromosomes in one of its muscle cells How many chromosomes would be found in one of its gametes?
20 chromosomes
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)
If an organism has 6 chromosomes how many diff types of gametes can they make?
64

How many unique gametes can be produced via assortment for an organism with a diploid number of 6 chromosomes?
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
If a diploid organism has a genome consisting of twenty two chromosomes its gametes will have how many chromosomes?
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes - therefore if the diploid number is 22, the gametes would have 11 chromosomes.
How many unique gametes can be produces via independent assortment for an organism with a diploid number of 6 chromosomes?
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
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
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?
How many pairs of chromosomes found in a gametes?
In human gametes, chromosomes are not paired. Instead, each gamete has one set of 23 chromosomes, and is said to be haploid.
How many chromosomes in rafflesia?
the number of chromosomes present in the somatic cells of rafflesia flower is 12... but as in gametes,gametes are formed by meiosis or reductional division ( in which the number of chromosomes becomes half the parent cell so that after fertilization, the original chromosome count is restored and the organism is identical), the number of chromosomes found in the games of raffleisa will be 12/2 or 6 chromosomes.
HOW MANY UNIQUE GAMETES CAN BE PRODUCED VIA INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENTS FOR AN ORGANISM WITH DIPLOIDS NUMBER OF SIX CHROMOSOMES?
eight
