Do the egg and sperm have a diploid chromosome number?

No, both the egg and sperm have a haploid chromosome number, which means they each contain half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells. When they combine during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote with the full complement of chromosomes.


Are ova cells haploid or diploid?

Ova cells are haploid, meaning they contain half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells. This allows for the correct number of chromosomes to be restored upon fertilization when they combine with sperm cells, resulting in a diploid zygote.


How does the number of chromosomes in a diploid compare to the number of chromosomes in a haploid?

The diploid number is "2n" and the haploid number is "n". Humans have 46 chromosomes, which are equal to the diploid number. half of these chromosomes are the haploid number, which is = 23.


What diploid number of chromosomes in horses is 64. What is the haploid number of chromosomes in horses?

The haploid number of chromosomes in horses is 32 if the diploid number of chromosomes is 64.


What diploid?

diploid is double the number of chromosomes


How many chromosomes would be present in a zebra gamete after meiosis the zebra has 50 chromosomes in its diploid cells?

A gamete has half the number of chromosomes of the somatic (diploid) cell. Therefore a zebra gamete would have 25 chromosomes if 50 is the diploid number.


What is the chromosome number during fertilization?

The zygote's number of chromosomes is double that of the two sex cells


What is an organisms diploid number?

An organism's diploid number refers to the total number of chromosomes in a diploid cell, which is a cell containing two sets of chromosomes. In humans, the diploid number is 46, with 23 pairs of chromosomes.


Do gametes have two sets of chromosomes?

No. a normal cell is diploid(2n) number of chromosomes. a normal human cell has 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes which makes 46 chromosomes. during meiosis 1 the homologous chromosomes randomly segregate along the equator and seperature into 2 daughter cells. during meiosis 2, the sister chromatids of the chromosome split in both of the daughter cell creating 4 daughter cells containign haplod (n) number of chromosomes - in humans they will have 23 chromosomes. gamete need to have half the number of chromosomes to a normal cell as when it fuses with another gamete during fertilization, the orginial 46 chromosome - diploid number will be restored.


Are gemetes diploid or haploid?

Gametes are haploid cells because they only contain half of the chromosomes of a diploid cell. For example, a human somatic (diploid) cell contains 46 chromosomes. Therefore, a haploid cell contains 23 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes does the oogonium have?

The oogonium has a diploid number of chromosomes, which means it contains two sets of chromosomes. In humans, the diploid number of chromosomes is 46.
