Any living thing has chromosomes; different species have different amounts!
69 chromosomes
chromosomes
Yes. They are found in every living thing.
It doesn't. It's all about what's inside those chromosomes (DNA). Potatoes have 48 chromosomes, humans have 46 and fruit flies have 8.
69
Yes. Everthing that reproduces and is living has chromosomes. The only thing about bacteria is that they are prokaryotes and do not have a membrane bound nucleus.
What a thought-provoking question! Scientists have established criteria about whether a "thing" is living or non-living. For example, two common criteria are respiration and reproduction. However, DNA is actually a chemical compound, and chromosomes are nucleic acids and protein. So, neither one is considered living; both are non-living.
Well, darling, if you want to round 69 to the nearest whole number, you'll end up with 69. Why? Because 69 is already a whole number! So, no need to change a thing, just keep on living your best life with that 69 intact.
69 and phil
Actually, most birds have a diploid number (2n) of ~80 pairs of chromosomes. Two thirds of all birds have between 2n=74 and 2n=82; they have highly conserved karyotypes throughout evolution. The bird you are probably thinking of is a species of kingfisher, which has the highest chromosome number known (2n=134 or 138 - it gets hard to tell with that many). The haploid number of chromosomes is then 67 or 69.
No. Red Blood and some other cells do not have chromosomes.
