A zygote is the result of the fusion of an egg cell and a sperm cell during fertilization. It contains all the genetic information necessary for the development of a new organism, including the DNA from both parents. The zygote will undergo multiple cell divisions to form an embryo.
What else can I help you with?
If gametes were diploid like somatic cells how many chromosomes would the zygote contain?
If gametes were diploid, the zygote would contain double the number of chromosomes found in a typical diploid zygote. So, if a human diploid cell normally has 46 chromosomes, a diploid gamete would have 46 chromosomes as well, resulting in a zygote with 92 chromosomes.
What is the number of chromosomes in the zygote if the parent's reproductive cells or gametes contain 12 chromosomes each?
The zygote would have 24 chromosomes, as it inherits half of its chromosomes from each parent. So, if each parent's gamete has 12 chromosomes, the zygote would receive 12 chromosomes from the egg and 12 chromosomes from the sperm, resulting in a total of 24 chromosomes.
Is a zygote haploid or diploid?
A zygote is diploid.
Is a zygote unicellular or multicellular?
A zygote is unicellular.
What single cell reproduces itself after conception?
A zygote is the single cell that results from the fusion of an egg and sperm during conception. The zygote undergoes cell division through mitosis to reproduce and develop into a multicellular organism.
How many Chromosomes does the zygote contain?
46 I think
What is it called When the two gametes that fuse to form a zygote contain different alleles of a given gen?
The zygote is heterozygous for that gene. Which ever one of the genes of the parents is dominant, then the zygote has that gene, but also carries the recessive trait from the other parent.
Does zygote have to contain DNA molecule?
Yes, a zygote, which is the fertilized egg, contains a DNA molecule. The zygote is formed through the fusion of a sperm and an egg, carrying genetic information from both parents. Consequently, DNA is essential for the development and growth of the zygote into a fully-formed organism.
How mice gametes contain 20 chromosomes. How many chromosome do normal mice zygotes contain?
Since the gametes contain one half the number, the zygote will have to have the full number of 40.
If gametes were diploid like somatic cells how many chromosomes would the zygote contain?
If gametes were diploid, the zygote would contain double the number of chromosomes found in a typical diploid zygote. So, if a human diploid cell normally has 46 chromosomes, a diploid gamete would have 46 chromosomes as well, resulting in a zygote with 92 chromosomes.
Specialized cells known as zygote cells are produced by the reproductive system?
Zygote cells are not produced by the reproductive system. Zygote cells are formed when an egg cell is fertilized by a sperm cell during the process of fertilization. Zygote cells contain the genetic material from both the egg and sperm and have the potential to develop into a new organism.
What do the four daughter cells look like compared to the original zygote?
The four daughter cells resulting from meiosis are genetically unique and have half the number of chromosomes as the original zygote. They are also haploid, meaning they contain one set of chromosomes.
What must a human zygote contain for making different types of cells in the human body?
I think it's stem cells
How many genes does zygote contain?
A zygote contains a full set of genes, which typically includes about 20,000 to 25,000 genes in humans. These genes come from the genetic material contributed by the sperm and egg during fertilization.
What might happen if human chromosomes did not separate?
well if human chromosomes number 21 does not separate during fertilization the baby will be with down syndrome. at fertilization of the egg with a normal sperm the zygote contain three chromosome number 21 (trizomic 21) hence the zygote contain 47 chromosome instead of 46.
What fertilized cell does a sperm and egg create?
Zygote
What do the gills on the mushroom do?
The gills of a mushroom contain reproductive basidia. Within the basidia, a zygote is formed. The zygote then unergoes meiosis, (and the cycle begins again). Basically they produce spores, and hold up the cap of a mushroom!:) <3 Gina Schriefer
