Explain why a diploid nucleus has homologous chromosomes but a haploid nucleus does not?

A 2n nucleus has a complete set of chromosomes. One set fro the mother and one set from the father equals two sets. A 2n nucleus has homologous chromosomes because it has one paternal homolog and one maternal homolog from the parents. So, an (n) nucleus has half the number of chromosomes and does not have any homologous chromosomes because its 2n nucleus has gone through a reductive division and now only has one set of chromosomes.


What are all chromosomes with the exception of the sex chromosomes?

Humans contain 46 chromosomes which function in 23 pairs. You receive one set of 23 from your mother and the other set of 23 from your father. These chromosomes pair with one another and are labeled as pairs 1-23. The 23rd pair is the sex chromosomes which are labeled XX for females and XY for males.

Why did Walter sutton test on grasshoppers?

Walter Sutton used grasshoppers to test chromosomes and hereditary. He discovered that chromosomes come in pairs, one set from the mother and one from the father, and that these pairs split up during meiosis.


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.


What are the paired chromosomes in eukaryotes?

in eukaryotes, there is usually a double set of genome (whole genetic information needed to build the organism). The genome is represented by chromosomes. For example, human cells possess 23 chromosomes. But, there are another 23 chromosomes in the cells, called homologous chromosomes. Their genetic information is very similar, nearly the same. The reason why the information is not 100% the same, is that one set of the 23 chromosomes comes from mother's egg and the second set comes from father's spermatozoon.
