If the number of chromosomes in the skin cell of an organism is 28 what is the number of chromosomes in the organism's cells?

depends on the organism, but (i think) it should be half the normal number of chromosomes in a normal cell, because the gametes (egg and sperm) are haploid cells, meaning they have half the number because when they fuse together in fertilisation they need to have the correct amount of chromosomes so that they can duplicate and grow into an embryo.

The reproductive cells have half as many chromosomes as the body cells.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoan egg cell of an organism is called a gamete which always has half the number of chromosome of a regular body cell (called somatic cell). So the answer wouldl be 14

How many chromosomes are found in sperm cells from the above organism?
The number of chromosomes in sperm cells varies among organisms. Without knowing the specific organism mentioned above, it is not possible to determine the exact number of chromosomes in its sperm cells.
How do organisms grow?
Organisms grow by cell division or mitosis which causes increase in number of cells , and then by increase in size of cell .
An organisms gametes have double the number of chromosomes found in the organisms body cells.?
No, a gamete has half the number of chromosomes as compared to the organisms body cells.
How many chromsomes in an organisms with a dipiloid number of 18?
The somatic (body) cells of that organism is the diploid number, 18. The number of chromosomes in the gametes ( sex cells) is half of the diploid number or 9.
If an organism has 16 chromosomes in each of its egg cells the organisms diploid number is 32?
The gamete or haploid cell of an organism contains half as many chromosomes as a diploid body cell. An organism that has 32 chromosomes would produce a gamete with 16 chromosomes.
If the number of chromosomes in the skin cells of an organism is 28 what is the number of chromosomes in the organisms egg cells?
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes that most cells in the organism have. Most human cells have 46 chromosomes, but eggs and sperm have 23 chromosomes each.
How many chromosomes do body cells of organisms have in relationship to the sex cells of the same organism?
There are 46 chromosomes in the body cells of organisms which have a relationship with the sex cells.
How many chromosomes are found in sperm cells from the above organism?
The number of chromosomes in sperm cells varies among organisms. Without knowing the specific organism mentioned above, it is not possible to determine the exact number of chromosomes in its sperm cells.

An organisms gametes have double the number of chromosomes found in the organisms body cells.?
No, a gamete has half the number of chromosomes as compared to the organisms body cells.
How many chromsomes in an organisms with a dipiloid number of 18?
The somatic (body) cells of that organism is the diploid number, 18. The number of chromosomes in the gametes ( sex cells) is half of the diploid number or 9.
If an organism has 16 chromosomes in each of its egg cells the organisms diploid number is 32?
The gamete or haploid cell of an organism contains half as many chromosomes as a diploid body cell. An organism that has 32 chromosomes would produce a gamete with 16 chromosomes.
All cells within an organism will have the same number of chromosomes except the gamete?
All cells within an organism will have the same number of chromosomes, which is the diploid number. The gametes, on the other hand, will have the haploid number of chromosomes.
An organism has a haploid number of 20. What is the organism's diploid number?
16 (haploid number = n, and diploid number =2n) so if n=8, the diploid number is 2x8 = 16
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 when cells go through mitosis (the process of dividing) the chromosomes become much more visible.
Why must the number of chromosomes in the sperm and egg be half the number of chromosomes in other cells of an organism?
I have the same queston
Compare the number of chromosomes in an organism's body cells with the number in its reproductive cells?
The reproductive cells of an organism each contribute half of the required genetic material to create the offspring. This means that each reproductive cell has 1n, while the organism has 2n chromosomes.
