That which is homologous to something else; as, the corresponding sides, etc., of similar polygons are the homologues of each other; the members or terms of an homologous series in chemistry are the homologues of each other; one of the bones in the hand of man is the homologue of that in the paddle of a whale.

Why are there exactly 2 chromosomes in each homologue in sexually reproducing organisms?

Sexually reproducing organisms have homologous chromosomes to ensure genetic diversity in offspring. Each homologue pair contains one chromosome from each parent, providing a pool of genetic material for recombination during meiosis, leading to unique combinations of traits in offspring. Having exactly 2 chromosomes in each homologue allows for a balanced contribution from both parents, maintaining genetic stability and diversity in the population.
