What happens to the chromosome number during mitosis?

During mitosis, the chromosome number remains the same. The cell duplicates its chromosomes before dividing, so each daughter cell receives the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.


If the chromosome number of a typical onion root tip cell is sixteen before mitosis what is the chromosome number of the each newly formed nucleus after nuclear division has taken place?

the same as before, each will have sixteen. If it was meyoses it would be 1/2 that (8) Mitotic division creates exact replicates of the original, so the answer is 16. Meosis occurs in the flower of the onion, it's sex cells ovules and pollen will have only 8 chromosomes


What happens to the chromosomes number when a cell divides?

The chromosome number remains the same during cell division. In mitosis, the cell produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell, each containing the same number of chromosomes. In meiosis, which produces gametes, the chromosome number is halved to ensure the correct number of chromosomes in the resulting offspring.


How does the chromosome number of a muscle cell compare to that of an egg cell from the same animal?

A sperm cell is the male sex cell. As such it only carries 1/2 of the number of chromosomes of a regular cell. This is because it fuses with the female sex cell to form a complete set of chromosomes. Essentially, where the number of chromosomes in the muscle cell is 2n, the sperm cell only has n chromosomes.


How Compared to a body cell a gamete contains?

Gametes have half the number of chromosomes as a body cell because they are haploid, while body cells are diploid. This reduction in chromosome number ensures that when a sperm and egg combine during fertilization, the resulting offspring will have the correct diploid chromosome number.

What is the chromosome number in the daughter cell?

The chromosome number for daughter cells resulting from mitosis is the same as the parent cell.


The chromosome number in an egg cell nucleus of a plant is 14 What is the normal chromosome number in a root epidermal cell of the same plant?

The normal chromosome number in a root epidermal cell of the same plant would also be 14. This is because both the egg cell and the root epidermal cell are part of the same plant organism, so they would have the same chromosome number.


What happens to the chromosome number during mitosis?

During mitosis, the chromosome number remains the same. The cell duplicates its chromosomes before dividing, so each daughter cell receives the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.


How is the chromosome number affected by cell division?

During cell division, the chromosome number remains constant. In mitosis, each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes to the parent cell. In meiosis, the chromosome number is halved to produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.


Do mitosis and meosis have the same chromosome number?

No, mitosis and meiosis do not have the same chromosome number in their resulting cells. Mitosis produces two daughter cells that each have the same chromosome number as the original cell (diploid in humans, for example). In contrast, meiosis results in four daughter cells, each with half the chromosome number of the original cell (haploid in humans), which is essential for sexual reproduction.


Mitosis is cell division in which the chromosome number is what?

Mitosis is cell division in which the chromosome number stays the same. Although at some points throughout the cell cycle, chromosomes may consist of two sister chromatids


Change in chromosome number in mitosis and meiosis?

In mitosis, the chromosome number remains constant - each daughter cell receives the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. However, in meiosis, the chromosome number is halved - the resulting gametes have half the number of chromosomes compared to the original parent cell.


Do all animals share the same number of chromosomes in their cell?

No. The total number of chromosome pairs differs by Organism.


How do the daughter cells at the end of mitosis and cytokinesis with their parent cell when it was in G1 of the cell cycle?

They are identical with same number of chromosome to the parent cell


How many chromosomes dose a human nerve cell have?

The same number as any other cell in a cat except its germ cells (also called sex cells). Remember, all somatic (aka body) cells in an animal possess the exact same chromosome complement which is two copies of each chromosome.


If an egg cell contains 50 chromosome how many chromosome are in a sperm cell from the same species?

50
