All chromosomes except the X and Y sex chromosomes are called?

homologous chromosomes and autosomal chromosomes


What is the difference between chromosomes and gametes?

The chromosomes in a gamete at the end of meiosis are haploid in number, 23 chromosomes in humans, 22 somatic chromosomes and 1 sex chromosome, either X or Y. Body cells have a diploid number of chromosomes, 46 chromosomes, 23 pair and 2 sex chromosomes included in that number.


How does one somatic cell compare to the other somatic cells of an individual organism?

== == Somatic cells are body cells that contain 46 chromosomes and reproduce very rapidly. Reproductive cells are sex cells(sperm and egg)(dont rproduce as fast as somatic cells)and they contain 23 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are there in each horses body cells?

It will depend on the animal - the number of chromosomes varies from species to species. Somatic cells are non-sex cells. This means that in sexually reproducing animals, somatic cells usually have 2 pairs of chromosomes (they are called diploid cells). Human somatic cells have 46 (23 pairs of) chromosomes. Cat somatic cells have 38 (19 pairs of) chromosomes. Dogs have 78 (39 pairs of) chromosomes.


Is the number of gametes twice the number of chromosomes found in the body cells?

Gametes are cells, in humans they contain 23 chromosomes. Body Cells (Properly Called: Somatic Cells) in humans contain 46 chromosomes (2 sets of 23). Some differences or problems can cause this number to change in specific humans, gametes, and somatic cells. Muscle cells may have hundreds of chromosomes, red blood cells have none.

Sperm or eggs that contain half the number of chromosomes as the body cells are called?

Haploid, or (n). In a somatic cell, the chromosomes are diploid, or (2n).


Is a typical body cell called somatic cell?

Yes, it is. The somatic (body) cells of multi celled organisms that reproduce sexually contain pairs of chromosomes.

Haploid cells are cells that have?

Half of the amount of chromosomes as the cells in the body that are not gametes (called somatic cells) so 23 chromosomes (instead of 23 PAIRS of chromosomes).


The 22 pairs of chromosomes in human somatic cells that are the same in males and females are called?

Autosomes.

What are chromosomes 1 through 22 called?

In humans, the chromosome pairs numbering 1 through 22 are called autosomes or sometimes somatic chromosomes.


Do you body cells of humans have 46 pairs of chromosomes?

A cell that contains both copies of each chromosome is called a Diploid cell.
