How are sex cells different from others human cells?
Sex cells, called gametes, are different to other cells in that they contain half the number of chromosomes. So in a human sex cell, there are 23 chromosomes, whereas a normal human cell has 46 chromosomes.
Chromosomes other than X and Y?
In addition to the X and Y chromosomes, humans also have 22 pairs of autosomes, totaling 44 autosomes in each cell. Autosomes are responsible for determining the majority of an individual's traits and characteristics, while the X and Y chromosomes determine sex. Variations or abnormalities in the number or structure of autosomes can lead to genetic disorders.
What are the other 44 chromosomes called?
The other 44 chromosomes are called autosomes. These chromosomes come in pairs and determine an individual's traits and characteristics, excluding the sex chromosomes.
How many chromosomes in normal human eggs and sperm is the same as in the body cells?
Both normal human eggs and sperm contain 23 chromosomes, which is half of the total number of chromosomes found in other body cells. When a sperm fertilizes an egg, their combined 46 chromosomes create a new organism with a complete set of 46 chromosomes.
The body cells of human males have what two chromosomes?
The body cells of most humans have 46 chromosomes, which can be arranged into 23 pairs. One chromosome in each pair comes from the mother and the other chromosome comes from the father. Of the 23 pairs, 22 pairs (the body chromosomes, or autosomes) are the same in males and females. The 23 rd pair, called the sex chromosomes, is different in males and females. In females, the sex chromosomes are the same and are called X chrosomes. In males, the sex chromosomes are different. One is an X chromosome (inherited from your mother or your father) and the other is a smaller chromosome called the Y chromosome (inherited from your father). So, the two chromosomes which are found in human males (but not human females) are the sex chromosomes, X and Y. See: http://biology.about.com/library/weekly/aa091103a.htm
The x and y chromosomes are called while all other chromosomes with in a cell are called?
Sex chromosomes , autosomes For you plato users the answer is C good luck.
How many chromosomes does a sex cell have?
a human, gametes have 23. half the number of other cells
Chromosomes other than those involved in sex determination are knows as?
The chromosomes you are referring to are called autosomes.
How many chromosomes found in human skin?
The same as in any other human autosomal cell, 46.
First 22 pairs of chromosomes in karyotype?
The first 22 pairs of chromosomes in a karyotype are called autosomes. These chromosomes are numbered from 1 to 22, with each pair containing one chromosome inherited from each parent. They determine an individual's genetic characteristics and traits, excluding sex-linked traits.
How many pairs of chromosomes do each human skin cell have?
Each human skin cell has 46 chromosomes, which are organized into 23 pairs. This includes one set of 23 chromosomes inherited from the mother and another set of 23 chromosomes inherited from the father.
How many homologous pairs of chromosomes does a diploid human cell have?
A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.
