The twenty-three chromosomes in humans is called a haploid number. It refers to the number of chromosomes in a gamete of an organism.

What cell would a hiploid be?
A haploid cell is a sex-chromosome without pair. A diploid cell is a sex-chromosome with pairs . People have 22 chromosome pairs and 2 chromosomes they do not have pairs. A man has XY chromosomes and a woman XX chromosomes.
How sperm is form?
That question doesn't make sense but if the question was how is spermed formed, then I'm ur man. Sperm are sex cell( gametes is the posh word), and they are formed by a process called meiosis which is essentially mitosis ( the multiplication of somatic cells) with another division stuck on the end. First the centrioles double and move to the poles of the cell, causing the DNA to double, the DNA lines up at the equator of the cell and is pulled apart by spindle fibres, this makes 2 new cells and that's mitosis, but I'm not done. The2 new cells then split to form 4 new cells with half the number of original chromosomes, this is called the haploid number, the diploid number is the full set of chromosomes. The human haploid number is 23 and the diploid number is 46
What is a rat karyotype?
chromosomes having centromere of same size and position
Why is it important that gametes contain only a single set of chromosomes?
An adult cell is "diploid", it has 2 sets of each chromosome.To make a sex cell these chromosomes pairs are split in two (during mitosis) and one half of each pair goes into each gamete (the sperm in a man or an egg/ovum in a woman) which is "haploid". The "haploid" gametes therefore contain half the number of chromosomes as compared to an adult call.When a man an a woman have sex the gametes from each meet and fuse together, giving the zygote produced 2 sets of each chromosome - back to the "diploid" state. The zygote then grows into the new baby which contains half the generic code form the mother and half the genetic code form the father - a wonderful new mix.
How many chromosomes does the black man have?
All humans, other than those with genetic disorders such as Down Syndrome, have 23 pairs of chromosomes, no matter what their skin color is. Skin color does not have anything to do with how many chromosomes a person has.
What is the difference between haploid and diploid chromosomes. How is this important to continuing life?
A somatic body cell contains two sets of chromosomes called diploid number. Gametes i.e. sperms and eggs have haploid number of chromosomes , they are produced by meiosis , they fuse to restore diploid number ,e.g. in man diploid no. is 46 and haploid no. is 23 .
What cell would a hiploid be?
A haploid cell is a sex-chromosome without pair. A diploid cell is a sex-chromosome with pairs . People have 22 chromosome pairs and 2 chromosomes they do not have pairs. A man has XY chromosomes and a woman XX chromosomes.
How many sets of chromosomes are found in an organism gametes?
Organism gametes typically contain half the number of chromosomes found in somatic cells, forming a haploid set of chromosomes. In humans, this means gametes have 23 chromosomes each, while somatic cells have 46 chromosomes in total.

How many chromosomes does an orangutan sperm cell have?
The diploid chromosome number for the orangutan is 48 (two more than man), so an orangutan sperm cell would contain 24 chromosomes.
The number of possible genetically different gamete for an organism quals 2n where n is the number of pairs of chromosomes if an organism has six pairs of chromosomes how man different gametes can it?
An organism with six pairs of chromosomes (12 total) will produce 2^12 (4096) different genetically unique gametes.
What pair of sex chromosomes does a man have?
xy
Which cells in your bodies are haploid?
only your gametes (eggs if you're a woman and sperm if you're a man)
How can a woman have heterozygous sex chromosomes?
No. Only a man can.
What is a rat karyotype?
chromosomes having centromere of same size and position
How does the chromosomes in a nerve cell differ from those in a sperm cell?
The sperm cell is haploid (has half as many chromasomes as the diploid nerve cell)The sperm cell can contain more mutations (depending on the age of the man, this is the basis of anticipation)The sperm cell's chromasome has undergone recombination (I'm assuming you know what that is)
Does a mans sperm always have the same chromosomes?
Man is always the Y chromosome.
