In humans, the twenty-third chromosome is different than the others. The last pair indicates whether male or female; this is why they are different
Chromosomes are arranged in pairs and they are not yet named, but each of the pair is identified by numbers 1 to 22 (ie., twenty-two pairs of autosomes) and the 23rd pair by xx (in females) or xy (in males) to represent gonosomes (sex chromosomes).
The pair of chromosomes involved in sex determination is called sex chromosomes, rest of the chromosomes are called autosomes.
For a species with three pair of chromosomes how many gametic combinations are possible?
There are 46 chromosomes (condensed threads of genetic material formed from chromatin as a cell prepares to divide), and 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body.
You have pair of X chromosomes in case of females. You have a pair of X and Y chromosomes in case of male.

A homologous pair is a pair of chromosomes that exist in diploid cells. One of the pair you inherit from your father, the other from your mother. A human has 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes (these do not include sex chromosomes). They are the same length and shape. They also share the same genes. The sequences of the genes may be different, which is what results in genetic variation, but the genes are the same.
Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes (one from the female and one from the male), each of which contains genes which correspond to the genes on the other chromosome in the pair. For example, if a chromosome contains a gene for eye color, the corresponding chromosome will also have a gene for eye color in the same place.
the sex chromosomes. females are XX and males XY. the males chromosmes is where onewould find the difference
chromosomes pair up wen heated and the molucles speed up and intensify
No you cannot because we have one less pair of chromosomes. Therefore it is impossible for a human to impregnate a monkey.
The chromosomes in each pair of chromosomes are called diploid chromosomes.
A pair of chromosomes is called a "chromosome pair."Generally, the two chromosomes in a pair are "homologous chromosomes."An individual form of a gene is called an "allele." (For example: if someone has genotype "Aa", they have two different alleles, "A" and "a")
There are 38 chromosomes in a lion; 19 pair.
