What is the haploid number in a fruit fly?
There are four chromosomes in a haploid drosophila cell.
How many chromosomes are in a somatic cell of a fruit fly?
Four each.If an organism is diploid, its cells contain two sets of chromosomes, one set from each parent. The fruit fly (Drosophila) is diploid.
How many chromosomes are there in a fruit fly sex cell?
Hamster sex cells have 22 chromosomes each.
What happens to a 2n cell during meiosis?
2n in cytoplasm refers to the diploid number of chromosomes in a cell. Diploid means that two sets of chromosomes are present in the cytoplasm. In humans the diploid number is 46 chromosomes. This means that in human cells the 2n in cytoplasm is 46. In other organisms the 2n in cytoplasm can vary. For example: In fruit flies the 2n in cytoplasm is 8. In nematodes the 2n in cytoplasm is 6. In wheat the 2n in cytoplasm is 42.The 2n in cytoplasm can be used to distinguish between haploid and diploid organisms. Haploid organisms such as yeast have only a single set of chromosomes in the cytoplasm. Diploid organisms such as humans have two sets of chromosomes in the cytoplasm.
What is the diploid number of the fruit fly?
a fruit fly has 4 pairs of chromosomes in every cell apart from gametes and usual exceptions.. red blood cells (no nucleus) etc
What are the haploid number of the fruit fly?
8
Haploid number of a fruit fly?

What is a polypoid organism?
an organism with more sets of chromosomes than is natural. IE a fruit is supposed to be diploid (2n), however some flies might gain another set of chromosomes to make it triploid (3n).
Is the chromosomes number related to complexity of the organism?
Different creatures have different numbers of chromosomes; chromosomes are always diploid, or found in matching pairs. The number of chromosomes is in no way related to the complexity of the organism. For instance, fruit flies have eight chromosomes, humans have forty-six, butterflies have 380, and ferns have a remarkable 1200 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes do eukaryotic organisms have in their body cells?
It depends on the type of eukaryotic organism. For example, both humans and fruit flies are a part of the kingdom Animalia, which is composed solely of eukaryotic organisms. However, humans have 43 chromosomes in 23 homologous pairs, while fruit flies have 8 chromosomes in 4 homologous pairs.
How many chromosomes do fruit flies have?
a fruit fly has 4 pairs of chromosomes
How many genes are there in a fruit fly?
Each cell of a fruit fly contains 13,601 genes.
