Wheat of the species Triticum aestivum (bread wheat), is hexaploid, with 42 chromosomes. Durum wheat, Triticum turgidum var. durum, is tetraploid with 28 chromosomes, and is the primary wheat for making pasta.

Typically, a chromosome contains hundreds to thousands of genes.
When a karyotype is taken, a chromosome typically has two chromatids.
No. The Y chromosome is much smaller than the X chromosome. There are only about 70 active genes on the Y chromosome and many more deleteriously mutated one. The X chromosome contains many more active genes and only crosses over marginally with the Y chromosome.
There are 2n possible homologous chromosome alignments, where n is the number of homologous pairs of chromosomes.
No, there are 46 chromosomes in one cell. A gamete, or sex cell, has 23 chromosomes because during fertilization, the female and male gametes (egg and sperm, respectively) come together to form a new cell with 46 chromosomes
A chromosome is made up of many genes.
in a homologous chromosome there are two chromosomes ( a chromosome and a sister chromosome)
The 'body' cells have 42 chromosomes. The sex cells would have 21 chromosomes. 3 X 7
The Calcutta Chromosome by Amitav Ghosh has 288 pages.

The number of genes varies. Most of any chromosome consists of non-coding DNA, which does not contain any genes. Each chromosome has many chromatins. One gene consists of many chromatins. Therefore, one chromosome could have many genes.
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.
