If referring to Mules, they have 63 chromosomes. They receive 32 chromosomes from the horse and 31 from the donkey, resulting in infertility due to the uneven number of chromosome pairs.

Why do biologists use dividing cells to determine the number of chromosomes in an organism?

Biologists use dividing cells to determine the number of chromosomes in an organism because chromosomes are most visible and distinct during cell division. By observing dividing cells under a microscope, biologists can count the number of chromosomes present, which provides information about the genetic makeup of the organism.


An ass has 64 chromosomes and a mule is a horseass hybrid Descibe why there will be a difficulty in meiosis in mules?

The answer is more complicated than chromosome number. Offspring of a cross between Przewalski's horse (66 chromosomes) and the domestic horse (64 chromosomes) are trisomic (2n+1) just like mules, mollies and hinnys, yet they are not sterile. The problem is that while horses and donkeys share much of the same genetic information, it is structured differently. Testicular meiosis is arrested in Mules and hinny stallions at the primary spermatocyte stage because of incompatibility of synaptal pairing between paternal and maternal chromosomes.

Why are populations more genetically diversed than the individuals that make them?

Genetic variation is expressed in genes which form chromosomes. Thus any individual in a population of breeding animals can only 'hold' the gene variations that can fit into that individuals chromosomes, while the number of chromosomes in the population is the number found in the individual * the number of individuals comprising the population, a much greater space for 'holding' variations in genes.
