Most humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, 22 of which are the same in both males and females. The 23rd pair differ in that females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome.
The vast majority of humans have the same number of chromosomes, however there are always exceptions to rules. An example of this is Turner Syndrome, where a female may be missing one of her X chromosomes. Another example would be Trisomy 21, which is also known as Down syndrome. Trisomy 21 is a condition that causes an individual to have three copies of chromosome 21 caused by nondisjunction.
that is a good question
sex chromosomes
A chicken has 78 chromosomes.
Every cell has the same number of chromosomes (except for sex cells), based on the specific organism's species. Humans have 46 chromosomes in each nucleus, and their sex cells have 23.
It all depends on the type of organism on many chromosomes are present in each cell. By regular cell division each new cell will have the same number as the original cell. Some organisms have many more chromosomes than humans do and some have many less chromosomes.
All normal cells in the human body have the same number of chromosomes because of the process of mitosis. Each cell is a clone.
They have homologous chromosomes
humans have a total of 46 chromosomes(:
A lobster has 100 chromosomes. Humans have 46 chromosomes, the same as a lizard. A dog has 78 chromosomes, and a fly has 12 chromosomes.
A chicken has 78 chromosomes.
Humans have 46 chromosomes.
Every cell has the same number of chromosomes (except for sex cells), based on the specific organism's species. Humans have 46 chromosomes in each nucleus, and their sex cells have 23.
In humans and other mammals, a male has XY sex chromosomes. In birds, a male has XX chromosomes. In amphibians, male chromosomes look the same as female chromosomes.
Same as humans: in the nucleus of the cell.
46 in humans, which is the same as 23 pairs
Humans have 46 chromosomes in their nerve cells, unless they have a chromosomal disorder. With the exception of the reproductive cells, which only carry half the chromosomal DNA, all human cells have the same amount of chromosomes.
Yes, all great apes have 24 chromosomes while humans have 23.
In humans, 46 chromosomes in all cells. (23 homologous pairs)
No, 29 chromosomes is not a normal number for a female. Typically, females have 46 chromosomes, consisting of two copies of 23 chromosomes.
