When a cell contains one sets of chromosomes it is said to be?
A haploid
What is the difference between a diploid cell and a haploid?
Diploid cells contain 2 sets of chromosomes, whereas haploid cells contain half of this (one set of chromosomes).
What do the term diploid and haploid mean?
Diploid: term used to refer to a cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes.Haploid: term used to refer to a cell that contains only a single set of chromosomes and therefore only a single set of genes.
What is the definition of 1n cell?
A 1n cell is a haploid cell, posessing one copy of each chromosome for that species. N=the number of different chromosomes present, 1=the number of sets of chromosomes.
Haploid cells are symbolized by what?
Haploid cells are denoted n, and diploid cells are denoted 2n."n" refers to the set of chromosomes - therefore haploid cells have one set of chromosomes and diploid cells have two sets (pairs of chromosomes). Haploid cells have half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells.
When a cell contains one sets of chromosomes it is said to be?
A haploid
A cell such as a somatic cell that contains two sets of chromosomes is said to be what?
A cell such as a somatic cell that contains two sets of chromosomes is said to be a diploid.

What cell has homologous chromosomes?
A somatic cell (body cell) is a cell that would have homologous chromosomes.
What is the difference between a diploid cell and a haploid?
Diploid cells contain 2 sets of chromosomes, whereas haploid cells contain half of this (one set of chromosomes).
Are organisms with 3 or more sets of chromosomes known as haploid organisms?
No - haploid cells contain half the normal amount of chromosomes.Polyploid is the term used for a cell/organism with more than 2 sets of chromosomes.
Are the chromosome single or double?
In a body cell, there are two sets of chromosomes, which is the diploid condition. In a sex cell, there is one set of chromosomes, which is the haploid condition.
What is the best evidence telling you whether this cell is diploid or haploid?
The cell is diploid because it contains two sets of chromosomes.
How many chromosomes does a human haploid cell have?
The haploid number is the number of chromosomes within the nucleus of a cell that constitutes one complete chromosomal set. This number is commonly abbreviated as n, where n stands for the number of chromosomes. The haploid number will be different for different organisms. In humans, the haploid number is expressed as n=23.Haploid human cells have 1 set of 23 chromosomes:Autosomal chromosomes (non-sex chromosomes): 22 sets.Sex chromosomes: 1 set.Diploid human cells have 2 sets of 23 chromosomes for a total of 46 chromosomes:Autosomal chromosomes: 22 sets of 2.Sex chromosomes: 1 set of 2.
What do the term diploid and haploid mean?
Diploid: term used to refer to a cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes.Haploid: term used to refer to a cell that contains only a single set of chromosomes and therefore only a single set of genes.
Is a zygote cell would you expect to be a haploid?
No - a zygote will be diploid. The sperm and egg are haploid - but they combine to create the zygote - which means it will have 2 sets of chromosomes.
A cell that contain two sets of chromosomes is said to be what?
Diploid cell
