How many pairs of chromosomes found in a gametes?

In human gametes, chromosomes are not paired. Instead, each gamete has one set of 23 chromosomes, and is said to be haploid.


What is it called when two gametes fuse during sexual reproduction?

When two gametes fuse during sexual reproduction, the single cell that forms is called a zygote. The gametes each have one set of chromosomes and are said to be haploid. When they fuse, they form the first diploid cell of the offspring, the zygote, which has two sets of chromosomes.


What other name do call gametes?

They are the sex cells. They are haploid cells.


Which sorts of plants undergo sexual reproduction?

Any plant that produces haploid gametes can be said to undergo sexual reproduction. The process involves the "joining" of two haploid gametes to form a diploid embryo (or zygote). Pretty much all plants that produce flowers (Angiosperms) or cones (Gymnosperms) produce pollen and eggs (which are the haploid gametes).


What produces gametes in mitosis?

Gametes are produced through meiosis, not mitosis. Meiosis is the cell division process that specifically produces haploid cells such as gametes (egg and sperm cells) in organisms. Mitosis is a cell division process that produces identical diploid cells for growth and repair.


Name the 2 human gametes and tell their chromosome number?

Which generation of the fern plants is said to be the haploid generation?

The gametophyte generation of fern plants is the haploid generation. It produces gametes (eggs and sperm) through mitosis. When the gametes fuse during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote that develops into the sporophyte generation.


Know whether or not gametes have homologous chromosomes?

Gametes are said to have homologous chromosomes, if they have same genes arranged in same order. During gamete formation meiosis precedes, therefore, individual gamete does not have its homologous counterpart. After fertilization, in diploid nucleus, homologous chromosomes are restored.


What must happen in order for gametes to be formed?
