Is a monkey a diploid cell or haploid cell?
Monkeys have both diploid and haploid cells. Organisms produce these 2 general cell types. There are several differences between diploid and haploid cells. Diploid means it contains 2 complete sets of chromosome (2n). Haploid means the cell contains 1 st of chromosomes (n). Diploid cells are the result of mitosis while haploid cells is the product of meiosis. Every species has a different number of chromosomes.
Do diploid cells have more chromosomes than the parent?
Parents are also diploid, only gametes are haploid (at least, if we are talking about animal species; some plants have alternating generations, which have both haploid and diploid adults).
What divisions are diploid and haploid cells?
Haploid and diploid cells are not part of biological "divisions". Haploid and diploid cells are part of the life cycle of a single species. "Divisions" separate whole groups of genera. Haploid cells contain a half measure of chromosomes while diploid contain a full measure for diploid organisms. There are polyploid organisms like wheat that is hexaploid (6 sets of chromosomes). Haploid cells come about from "division" of original diploid cells in a process called meiosis if that's what you mean by division.
Does fertilization reestablish the diploid state of a species?
Yes, fertilization combines the haploid gametes (sperm and egg) to form a diploid zygote. This process restores the diploid state and ensures that the resulting organism has the full set of chromosomes characteristic of its species.
If the diploid chromosome number of a species is 24 then a cell with 12 chromosomes would be?
A cell with 12 chromosomes would be haploid. In humans, a haploid cell would have 23 chromosomes.
Does the haploid number of a cell tell the number of chromosome pairs?
Yes, the haploid number of a cell (or, to put it another way, a species) is the same as the number of pairs of chromosomes in a diploid cell.For example, we humans have a haploid number of 23. This means that a diploid cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes.
Gametes are diploid so that when fertilization occurs the resulting zygote will have the normal number of chromosomes for the species?
Actually, gametes are haploid, not diploid. This means they contain half the number of chromosomes typical for the species. During fertilization, two haploid gametes (one from each parent) combine to form a diploid zygote, restoring the normal chromosome number for that species. This ensures genetic diversity and proper development.
How do you calculate diploid and haploid?
The "haploid number" is the number of chromosomes in a given organism's reproductive cell (i.e., either sperm or egg or similar, depending on the species) or it's the number of pairs of chromosomes in an organism. They are easier to count just before mitosis or during the interphase of meiosis. So put a cell under a microscope, make sure it is in the right phase of reproduction and count the little "X's".
Are stomatic cells haploid or diploid?
Somatic cells (of the body) are diploid (having 46 chromosomes). Only gametes (eggs and sperm) are haploid (having 23 chromosomes). So that during fertilization the egg and sperm combine their chromosomes resulting in a new life with 46 unique chromosomes (in humans, of course. Others species has differing numbers of chromosomes). The haploid combination ensures genetic diversity.
A species that contains two copies of each chromosome is called?
A species that contains two copies of each chromosome is called diploid. Each pair of chromosomes, one from each parent, make up a diploid set in the organism.
