What is an organism with one set of chromosomes?

An organism with one set of chromosomes is called haploid. Haploid organisms have half the usual number of chromosomes, meaning they have only one set of chromosomes instead of the usual two sets (diploid). Examples of haploid organisms include certain fungi, algae, and gametes (sperm and egg cells) in animals.


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.


An organism that reproduces sexually has a diploid number of 40 How many chromosomes will a gamete of this organism have?

What are haploid chromosomes?

Haploid chromosomes are single sets of chromosomes found in the reproductive cells of an organism.

Sex cells called have only one set of chromosomes?

Sex cells called gametes have only one set of chromosomes, containing half the number of chromosomes found in other body cells. This allows for the fusion of two gametes during fertilization to create a new individual with a complete set of chromosomes.


How many unique gametes can be produced via assortment for an organism with a diploid number of 6 chromosomes?

When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.


How many hapliod set in a tetraploid 4n?

A tetraploid organism has four sets of chromosomes, denoted as 4n. Since a haploid set contains one complete set of chromosomes, a tetraploid has four haploid sets. Therefore, a tetraploid (4n) has four haploid sets (n).
