Skin cells divide via mitosis - therefore the new cells will have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell. Therefore in humans, the new skin cells will have 46 chromosomes.

When chromosomes replicate they produce?
when the chromosomes are replicated the cells were about to divide into 2 cells (mitosis)
How does sex cells differ from ordinary cells?
Sex cells, called gametes, are different to other cells in that they contain half the number of chromosomes. So in a human sex cell, there are 23 chromosomes, whereas a normal human cell has 46 chromosomes.
What do organisms produce through mitosis?
New cells of the same type and with the same number of chromosomes as the cell that underwent mitosis. a cell that under goes mitosis produces 2 new cells which are diploid in number and they are genetically identical to one another and to the parent
The ability of cells to pass on their characteristics to new cells is most directly related to the ability of?
chromosomes undergoing replication.
Why must a cell chromosome duplicate before mitosis occurs?
Because the daughter cells have to have the same number of chromosomes you began with. When the cells go through mitosis the get split. If you split a cell with 46 chromosomes into two, you would only have 23 each. That's why it needs to replicate beforehand. It will make sure the cells always have 46 chromosomes.
Is it important that new skin cells have 46 chromosomes?
Yes. All healthy cells, except for reproductive cells, need 46 chromosomes to function properly.
How many chromosomes are in the new daughter cells for meiosis?
4 cells
What produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the origianal cells?
I believe it is Meiosis that produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original parent cells.
If a cell division has 64 chromosomes how many chromosomes will the new cells have after cell division?
if a cell has 64 chromosomes together, all the offspring cells will have 64 chromosomes each.
How many chromosomes are in the new daughter cells are in meiosis?
23
The diploid body cells of a frog contains 26 chromosomes If these cells undergo mitosis how many chromosomes will be in each new cell?
There are 26 chromosomes in the somatic cells of the Leopard Frog.
What is the creation of new sex cells with half as many chromosomes?
Meiosis
Why is it important to have half as many chromosomes as normal body cells?
The gametes must have half as many chromosomes as normal body cells because they unite to form a zygote, which is the first body cell of the new organism. For example, human body cells have 46 chromosomes and human gametes (sperm and egg cells) have 23 chromosomes. When the sperm fertilizes the egg, the zygote will have 46 chromosomes, and is the first body cell of the new human.
How maby chromosomes will be contasined in new cells?
In humans, 46 chromosomes in all cells. (23 homologous pairs)
What produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original cell?
Meiosis produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original cell. It is a type of cellular division that is also referred to as a reduction cell division.
When chromosomes replicate they produce?
when the chromosomes are replicated the cells were about to divide into 2 cells (mitosis)
How many chromosomes does each new cell contain(After mitosis) if the original cell had 52 chromosomes?
52 - mitosis produces daughter cells with exactly the same chromosomes of the original cell.
