A species that contains two copies of each chromosome is called?

A species that contains two copies of each chromosome is called diploid. Each pair of chromosomes, one from each parent, make up a diploid set in the organism.


What is tetraploid?

Tetraploid refers to a cell, organism, or species that contains four sets of chromosomes. This is double the normal diploid number of chromosomes found in most organisms. Tetraploidy can arise through various mechanisms such as cell division errors or hybridization events.


Is is an organism or cell with two sets of chromosomes?

An organism or cell with two sets of chromosomes is diploid, meaning it has pairs of homologous chromosomes. In humans, each somatic cell typically contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.


Are there two complete sets of chromosomes in a diploid cell?

yes, there is a pair of chromosome in diploid cell.


How many copies of each cell are in cells?

2 one from the mother and one from the father assuming that it is of a diploid organism also if there is no genetic disease such as downs syndrome that could cause multiple copies of genes


What cell contains two of each kind of chromosomes?

A diploid cell is a cell that contains two copies of each chromosome: one from a maternal source and the other is paternal. This occurs in the process of mitosis or the cell division (also called reproduction) of body cells (any cell except the gametes). Diploid cells and the process of mitosis are responsible for growth, cell replacement, and cell/tissue repair.


If an organism has 16 chromosomes in each of its egg cells the organisms diploid number is 32?

Yes, that is correct. If an organism has 16 chromosomes in its egg cells, its diploid number would be 32. This means that in its somatic cells, which are diploid, it would have 32 chromosomes, with each chromosome having a pair.


What is a Cell that has two copies of each chromosone called?

A cell that has two copies of each chromosome is called a diploid cell. This means that each chromosome in the cell has a matching homologous chromosome. Humans have diploid cells in their body, with a total of 46 chromosomes arranged in 23 pairs.


If 2 haploid in a somatic cell combine together to produce a diploid how many?

If two haploid cells combine, a diploid cell is formed with two copies of each chromosome, one from each haploid cell. This results in a total of 46 chromosomes in humans, where each chromosome has a homologous pair.


How many copies of a gene does each somatic cell have?

One. A gamete is a haploid cell containing one copy of each chromosome (23 in humans). Each chromosome contains one copy of each gene. Therefore, a gamete contains one copy of each gene.


When gametes combine to form a zygote the chromosomes number of the zygote is now referred to as?

diploid is what the total number of chromosomes in an organism is


Which type of eukaryotic cell contains two types of each chromosome?

A cell with two copies of each chromosome is called a diploid cell. A cell with one copy is called a haploid cell.
