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.
What is true about any two normal gametes from a human female parent?
Any two normal gametes from a human female parent will each contain 23 chromosomes, including one X chromosome. This is because females have two X chromosomes in their somatic cells. The combination of gametes during fertilization will result in a zygote with the typical 46 chromosomes.
What is the number of chromosomes in the zygote if the parent's reproductive cells or gametes contain 12 chromosomes each?
The zygote would have 24 chromosomes, as it inherits half of its chromosomes from each parent. So, if each parent's gamete has 12 chromosomes, the zygote would receive 12 chromosomes from the egg and 12 chromosomes from the sperm, resulting in a total of 24 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 a cell has 14 chromosomes and undergoes meiosis how many chromosomes will each cell have?
The daughter cells will have 14 chromosomes, the same as the parent cell. Not only are the numbers of chromosomes the same, but they are also genetically identical to each other and the parent cell.

Where do zygotes get chromosomes from?
A zygote is produced by the merger of two gametes, which are an ovum and a sperm. The gametes are produced by the two parent organisms. That's where the chromosomes come from. This process is known as heredity.

Why do gametes have half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells?
Since you need 46 chromosomes total to function properly, and each of your parents have 46 chromosomes, you need to get 23 chromosomes from each of your parents in order to have the correct number of 46 chromosomes. You get 22 somatic chromosomes (autosomes) and 1 sex chromosome from each parent. Of course, during oogenesis or spermatogenesis, there could be nondisjunction, resulting in you receiving more or less chromosomes than you should. An example of this is Down Syndrome, where you receive an extra copy of Chromosome 21 from either parent. However, generally you will only receive 23 chromosomes from each parent (through their gametes) so that when they combine, you will have the correct 46 chromosomes. That is why gametes (haploid) have half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells (diploid).
Meiosis produces cells that?
Meiosis produces cells that have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell, are genetically unique due to crossing over and random assortment of chromosomes, and are used in sexual reproduction to produce gametes (sex cells).
Are offspring of gametes haploid or diploid?
Gametes are haploid. When two gametes unite during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote, genetically unique from either parent, and the first cell of the offspring. The zygote is not really considered an offspring of the gametes, but of the parent organisms that produced the gametes. For example, a human zygote is the first cell of a human baby formed when a sperm from a male and an ovum from a female unite during fertilization. The zygote and subsequent baby are the offspring of the mother and father.
How many chromosomes are involved in asexual reproduction?
In asexual reproduction, a single parent cell gives rise to offspring without the involvement of gametes. The number of chromosomes involved in asexual reproduction is typically the same as the parent cell, resulting in genetically identical offspring. For example, in mitosis, the daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
How many chromosomes do horses have in their parent cells?
A horse has 64 chromosomes arranged as 32 pairs.
What is gamete fusion?
It is the process during the formation of a zygote when two gametes, each carrying a different set of chromosomes, fuse together. This ensures that the developing zygote has a set of chromosomes from each parent and the cells can divide properly.The fusion of gametes is called sexual reproduction. There must be two gametes present for sexual reproduction to occur and they must have to correct number of chromosomes.
