What are statements that are true about chromosomes?
Selected Answer: The father donated one of each pair of homologous chromosomes, and the mother donated the other.
The two copies of each chromosome in body cells are called?
Homologous pairs.
How many homologous chromosomes in a haploid organism?
There are no homologous chromosomes in a haploid cell, as a haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes. One member of each pair of homologous chromosomes comes from one set, and the other member comes from the second set, so homologous chromosomes only exist in diploid cells.
The two chromosomes in each matching pair in a karyotype are?
homologous chromosomes- Erick Rosales
Describe and distinguish between replicated chromosomes and homologous chromosomes?
Chromosomes usually occur in pairs in body cells. One chromosome in the pair comes from one parent and the other chromosome comes from the other parent. The two chromosomes are the same size and shape and carry the same genes in the same positions. They are called homologous chromosomes. When cells divide the chromosomes first have to copy themselves (ie replicate). Each homologous chromosome makes a replica of itself, and the original and replica are attached to each other at a region called the centromere.

What are chromosomes with same size and shape?
The chromosomes with the same gene content, size, and shape in diploid organism is called homologous chromosomes. The set of chromosome each came from maternal and paternal chromosome.
What are homologous choromosomes?
Homologous chromosomes are pairs of each other. They are chromosomes that are identical to each other except for a few variations. Everybody has one from their mom and dad. Everybody has 46 chromosomes, but in reality it is less confusing to say "we have 23 pairs of chromosomes."
What are the chromosomes that are paired one from each parent called?
they are called homologous chromosomes
Are tetrad and homologous chromosomes the same?
Homologous chromosome is when a pair of chromosomes containing the same linear gene sequences, each derived from one parent, and a tetrad is formed when 2 homologous chromosomes join together
Difference between sister chromatids and homologous chromosomes?
Homologous chromosomes are individual chromosomes inherited from each parent. Sister chromatids are the result of DNA replication, and the are identical.
The two copies of each chromosome in body cells are called?
Homologous pairs.
How many homologous chromosomes in a haploid organism?
There are no homologous chromosomes in a haploid cell, as a haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes. One member of each pair of homologous chromosomes comes from one set, and the other member comes from the second set, so homologous chromosomes only exist in diploid cells.
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.
The two chromosomes in each matching pair in a karyotype are?
homologous chromosomes- Erick Rosales

What happens during the segregation of chromosomes?
Homologous chromosomes pairs pull away from each other.
