A cell containing both sets of homologous chromosomes is called a diploid. One is usually taken from the mother and one from the father.
The total number of chromosomes in a cell with homologous pairs is twice the number of unique chromosomes. For humans, the total number of chromosomes in a cell with homologous pairs is 46.
A human cell typically contains 23 pairs 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.
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.
a diploid cell
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.
They are called homologous chromosomes (but can also be referred to as homologues or homologs).
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.
A diploid cell differs from haploid is that the diploid cell has homologous chromosomes as when the haploid cell doesn't have homologous chromosomes.
A diploid cell differs from haploid is that the diploid cell has homologous chromosomes as when the haploid cell doesn't have homologous chromosomes.
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.
5 homologous chromosomes are in a fruit fly somatic cells.
