How is genetic information is passed from parents to offspring?
The traits are passed on through gametes, in which the males sperm carries, and the females eggs are carried. Each only contains one of each chromotids which decides your traits depending on the matches the chromosomes make.
Why is there need for a haploid number of cromo in the gametes?
The haploid number of chromosomes in gametes is necessary for sexual reproduction. When gametes, such as sperm and egg cells, combine during fertilization, they form a zygote with the diploid number of chromosomes. This ensures that the offspring will have the proper number of chromosomes and genetic material necessary for normal development and growth. Additionally, the haploid number allows for genetic diversity and recombination through the process of meiosis.
What are two ways that sexual reproduction helps create and and maintain genetic diversity?
Sexual reproduction helps create and maintain genetic diversity by: # The independent assortment of chromosomes during meiosis. # The random fertilization of gametes.
What is the genetic structures located within the nucleus called?
In the nucleus of each cell in the human body (excluding gametes [23]) there are 46 chromosomes, these chromosomes consist of lots of different genes that all join up together (A to T, G to C) and each gene has a code for a certain part of your body.
What is relationship between gametes and genetic variation?

Principle of independent assortment?
Independent assortment is the random assortment of chromosomes during the production of gametes. This results in genetically unique gametes. The gametes are genetically different to the one another. This leads to genetic variation.
What are the three outcomes of meiosis?
Three outcomes of meiosis: it reduces chromosomes to the haploid number, it provides genetic variation, and it ensures the correct distribution of chromosomes into the resulting cells.
What is found inside gametes?
Gametes are germ cells. So in germcells the chromosomes are found which carry DNA as genetic material or heriditary material allthough in gamates only half of the no. of chromosomes are found as the two germ cells i.e. of mother and father fused toghter to form zygote which will then having exactlly the same no. of chromosomes as that of normal cells of that species.
How is the equal genetic contribution of male and female parents ensured in the progeny?
Human cells have 46 chromosomes, except gametes (eggs and sperm), which have 23. A human offspring has 23 chromosomes from the father and 23 from the mother.
Do the number of chromosomes in each new cell formed differ from each other?
Gametes contain different genetic information to each other and to the parent cell.

How many chromosome does a gamete contain?
there are 23 chromosomes in a human gamete
How many sex chromosomes does a human have?
In an average somatic (body) cell, two. and in human gametes there is , one all chromosomes in human body is , 46 chromosomes. in normal female somatic cell is (44+XX) . in normal male somatic cell (44+XY) in normal female gametes (22+X) in normal male gametes (22+X) or (22+Y) .
