42
Humans and other organisms that reproduce sexually need to have half the normal number of chromosomes to make sure their offspring have the same number of chromosomes as they do - the father and mother each contribute half of their chromosomes (sperm and egg).
No, 29 chromosomes is not a normal number for a female. Typically, females have 46 chromosomes, consisting of two copies of 23 chromosomes.
what is the 2n chromosome number for a normal bug
Diploid is the full set of chromosomes - one of each from each parent. Haploid is just the set from one parent (half the total). The number varies in different animals. In humans the full diploid number is 46 and the haploid number is 23.
You will always have the same ammount of chromosomes, as this number never changes from birth to death. The normal number is 46, of which 23 are derived from the mother and 23 from the father.
The normal diploid number of chromosomes for humans is 46.
During meiosis, a cell with half the normal number of chromosomes (haploid) is generated to eventually form gametes (sperm or egg). When two haploid gametes fuse during fertilization, they restore the full set of chromosomes (diploid) in the zygote. This zygote then undergoes mitotic cell divisions to produce cells with the normal number of chromosomes.
Haploid (?)
there are 46
A normal human body has 23 pairs of chromosomes, totaling 46 chromosomes, which are diploid in somatic (body) cells. Therefore, the number of haploid chromosomes in a normal human is 23. This haploid number is found in gametes (sperm and egg cells), which are produced through meiosis.
A turkey has 80 diploid chromosomes. The number of chromosomes varies between animals. For instance, carp have 104 chromosomes each.
Humans have 46 chromosomes. To be more specific, they have 22 somatic (body) chromosomes from each parent, and one sex chromosome from each parent. Added together, humans have 46 chromosomes (or 23 pairs). However different animals have different numbers of chromosmes. But under normal circumstances, each has 1 copy from each parent, and 1 copy of a sex chromosome from each parent. For instance, mice have 40 chromosomes, a horse has 64, a cat and dog both have 38, and some species of elephants have 56. It depends on the animal because each animal has a different number of chromosomes.
