How many Chromosomes are in mosquito cells?

Somatic mosquito cells have 6 chromosomes


Are gamete cells mutations and somatic cells mutations inheritable?

Since only gamete cells actually participate in the creation of a new organism, it is only the mutations in gamete cells which are inheritable; mutations in somatic cells are not inheritable.


Is muscle a gamete cell?

No a muscle cell is a somatic cell


How are Mutations Classified?

A mutation can be classified by the somatic cell or the gamete cells.


What difference does it make if a mutation occurs in a somatic cell or in a gamete?

If the mutation occurs in a somatic cell and the cell is still able to reproduce, the mutation continues in the daughter cells in following generations. If a mutation occurs in a gamete, the original organism remains unchanged. If that gamete is used for reproduction, then the mutation will continue in the offspring.


How many chromosomes are contained in a human male gamete cell?

In a gamete (sex) cell, there are 23 chromosomes. A gamete is a haploid, or n, whereas a somatic (normal) cell is a diploid, or 2n, and has 46 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes does a drosophila gamete have?

A Drosophila gamete has 4 chromosomes. Drosophila, also known as fruit flies, have a diploid number of 8 chromosomes in their somatic cells, which means each gamete will have half of that number.


How many chromosomes will a gamete of this organism have?

It varies from organism to organism. Humans have 23 chromosomes in a haploid (gamate) cell.


What is the chromosome number of gamete?

They have half the number of the somatic (parent) cell. So if a parent cell had 46 chromosomes in its nucleus, then its gamete would have 23(one chromosome from each pair).


What cell type is diploid sex cell or ovum or gamete or somatic cell?

The diploid cell type is the somatic cell. Gametes, such as ovum, are haploid cells that are produced by the process of meiosis from diploid germ cells.


What type of cell is Meiosis?

That type of division is done by a gamete (sex cell). mitosis is performed in a somatic (non-reproductive) cell.


How many c hromosomes are in a human GAMETE?

21 somatic chromosomes + 2 sex chromosomes (XX in an ovum or XY in a sperm).
