How many sperm cells does a dog have?

39 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are in a dog zygote?

A dog zygote contains 78 chromosomes, which is the diploid number for domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris). This number is the result of the fusion of a sperm cell and an egg cell, each contributing 39 chromosomes. Thus, the zygote has a complete set of genetic material necessary for development.


In a dogs body each cell has 78 chromosomes How many chromosomes are there in a dog's sperm cells?

There's no good reason for it; the number of chromosomes an animal has doesn't really have much to do with anything.

The domestic dog, Canis lupus familiaris has a diploid number of 78 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes in the sex cells of a dog?

Dogs have 39 pairs of chromosomes in their somatic cells. Sex cells (sperm and eggs) are haploid, meaning they contain half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells. Therefore, the sex cells of a dog have 39 chromosomes.


In mitosis how many chromosomes are in each daughter cell?

It depends on the species--humans, for example, will have 46 chromosomes in each daughter cell after mitosis, while a dog will have 78. In mitosis, the number of chromosomes in each daughter cell is equal to the number of chromosomes in the interphase parent cell.

If one cell in a dog 2n equals 78 undergoes meiosis and another cell undergoes mitosis how many chromosomes will each resulting cell contain?

Well, darling, let me break it down for you. In meiosis, a cell with 2n chromosomes will produce cells with n chromosomes, so each resulting cell will have 39 chromosomes. In mitosis, the number of chromosomes remains the same, so each resulting cell will also have 78 chromosomes. Hope that clears things up for you, sugar.


Can dog sperm cell fertilize a human egg cell?

The semen of a dog could not impregnant a human egg. The genetic makeup of a canine's sperm is vastly different from a humans dna, and all attempts by scientists have concluded that it is not possible.
