Chromosomes from the father are called y chromosomes.
Maternal.
paternal
2n= 24 therefore one set consists of 12 chromosomes.
During reproduction, humans get half their chromosomes from the mother and half from the father. The mother provides one of the x sex chromosomes, and the father may contribute an x or y sex chromosome.
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.
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.

you have 2 sets of chromosomes and you get one set from your mother and one from you father. they're made of nucleic acids
No - a normal human will have 1 set of chromosomes from their father and 1 set from their mother.
No - a normal human will have 1 set of chromosomes from their father and 1 set from their mother.
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.
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.
2n= 24 therefore one set consists of 12 chromosomes.
A pair of chromosomes, one from the mother and one from the father that are similar.
Diploid mean double.Two set of chromosomes (23) from father and (23) from mother.
During reproduction, humans get half their chromosomes from the mother and half from the father. The mother provides one of the x sex chromosomes, and the father may contribute an x or y sex chromosome.
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.
