In organisms where meiosis occurs to create gametes, sex cells are made to have half as many chromosomes as regular body cells have. For example, a human man's sex cell or gamete would have 23 chromosomes and the non-sex cells in his body (the ones that aren't produced in his testes) would contain 46 chromosomes. This is for the purpose of creating progeny that have an increased variety of genetic information. This is possible because the male gamete combines with the female gamete to create a whole new organism with a new combination of genetic information that has the correct number of chromosomes.
What else can I help you with?
Suppose that for an organism 2n 8 how many chromosomes do the organism's gametes contain?
4. Two gametes get together to make something new. Just double up!
The number of possible genetically different gametes for an organism equals 2N where N is the number of pairs of chromosomes. If an organism has four pairs of chromosomes how many differ?
32
If a diploid organism has a genome consisting of twenty two chromosomes its gametes will have how many chromosomes?
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes - therefore if the diploid number is 22, the gametes would have 11 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes will an organism have in its body cells if the gametes contain 25 chromesones?
If the gametes contain 25 chromosomes, the organism will have 50 chromosomes in its body cells. This is because during fertilization, the gametes (sperm and egg) fuse to form a zygote, which will contain a total of 50 chromosomes, with 25 from each parent.
People have 46 chromosome in each their cells how many are in their gametes?
Gametes, such as sperm and egg cells, have half the number of chromosomes found in somatic cells. Therefore, human gametes have 23 chromosomes each.
A particular organism has 40 chromosomes in one of its muscle cells How many chromosomes would be found in one of its gametes?
20 chromosomes
The number of possible genetically different gametes for an organism equals 2N, where N is the number of pairs of chromosomes. If an organism has four pairs of chromosomes, how many different gametes can it produce?
16 (apex)
If an organism has 6 chromosomes how many diff types of gametes can they make?
64

How many unique gametes can be produced via assortment for an organism with a diploid number of 6 chromosomes?
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
How many unique gametes can be produces via independent assortment for an organism with a diploid number of 6 chromosomes?
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
How many chromosome will a gamate of this have 40?
In humans, gametes (sperm and eggs) are haploid, meaning they contain half the number of chromosomes found in somatic (body) cells. If an organism has 40 chromosomes in its diploid somatic cells, its gametes will have 20 chromosomes. This reduction occurs through meiosis, which ensures that when gametes fuse during fertilization, the resulting offspring have the correct diploid number of chromosomes.
How many chromosomes will an organism have in its body cells if the gametes contain 25 chromesones?
If the gametes contain 25 chromosomes, the organism will have 50 chromosomes in its body cells. This is because during fertilization, the gametes (sperm and egg) fuse to form a zygote, which will contain a total of 50 chromosomes, with 25 from each parent.
If an organism had 4 pairs of chromosomes how many different gametes can it produce?
For a species with three pair of chromosomes how many gametic combinations are possible?
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.
