How many chromosomes does a cheek cell have?

46 chromosomes. The only cells in the human body that do not contain 46 chromosomes are specialist cells which have no cell nucleus (eg a human red blood cell) and reproductive cells, which only contain 23 chromosomes. Thus the cheek cell of the animal would be no different from any other cell in its number of chromosomes and would contain the full number of chromosomes for that animal.


How many chromosomes would a tetraploid potato gametic cell contain?

A tetraploid potato cell would contain four sets of chromosomes, so a gametic cell would contain half that amount, which is two sets (diploid). This means a tetraploid potato gametic cell would contain 48 chromosomes.


If gametes were diploid like somatic cells how many chromosomes would the zygote contain?

If gametes were diploid, the zygote would contain double the number of chromosomes found in a typical diploid zygote. So, if a human diploid cell normally has 46 chromosomes, a diploid gamete would have 46 chromosomes as well, resulting in a zygote with 92 chromosomes.


How would the karyotype of an organism that reproduces asexualy differ from a human karyotype?

Characteristics. Also, another difference between karyotype and karyogram is that while karyotype describes the number and appearance of chromosomes and includes their length, banding pattern, and centromere position, karyogram contains chromosomes arranged in an appropriate order.Jul


How many chromosomes are in a mature sperm cell?

A sex cell contains half the number of chromosomes found in a somatic (normal) cell. Therefore a human sex cell would contain 23 chromosomes.

Why does a gamete only contain 23 in the human body?

You get the other 23 from the opposite sex. The semen and the egg combines and gets 46 chromosomes. If each gamete contained 46 chromosomes, the zygote would contain 92 chromosomes.
