What is the term that describes the condition in which a cell contains two sets of homologous chromosomes?

The term that describes the condition in which a cell contains two sets of homologous chromosomes is "diploid." In humans, diploid cells have a total of 46 chromosomes, with 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes.


How many homologous pairs are found in a diploid cell?

A diploid cell contains two sets of homologous chromosomes, with one chromosome from each parent forming each pair. Therefore, there are typically 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes in a diploid human cell, totaling 46 chromosomes.

What cell has homologous chromosomes?

A diploid cell has homologous chromosomes. Diploid cells contain two sets of chromosomes, with one set inherited from each parent. The homologous chromosomes have similar genes in the same order, but may have different versions of those genes.


What are the matching pairs of chromosomes in the diploid cell called?

They are called homologous chromosomes (but can also be referred to as homologues or homologs).


What is the difference between a haploid cell and diploid cell?

A haploid cell contains a single set of chromosomes (half the normal number), typically found in gametes (sperm and egg cells). In contrast, a diploid cell contains two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, and is found in most somatic cells of the body.


What is the difference between a haploid cell and the diploid cell?

A diploid cell differs from haploid is that the diploid cell has homologous chromosomes as when the haploid cell doesn't have homologous chromosomes.

How many homologous pairs of chromosomes does a diploid human cell have?

A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.
