the sperm and the egg
In humans, each parent contributes 23 chromosomes.In general, each parent of any species contributes the haploid number of chromosomes, which is the number of chromosomes in a single set of chromosomes.
The process by which offspring inherit one chromosome from each parent to form a pair of chromosomes is called genetic recombination. During this process, genetic material from the mother and father combines to create a unique set of chromosomes in the offspring.
Meiosis results in cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Therefore, if a parent cell has 20 chromosomes, the result of meiosis will be cells with 10 chromosomes.
No, that statement is incorrect. Egg and sperm each contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent organism. When they fuse during fertilization, they combine to create a new cell with the full set of chromosomes.
Each parent donates 23 chromosomes to his/her child.....23 chromosomes from mother and 23 chromosomes from father makes a total of 46 chromosomes a healthy child.
A chromosome is transferred from parent to offspring and its purpose is to transport genetic material to the cell of the offspring
A parent contributes 23 chromosomes to the genetic makeup of their child. This set of chromosomes carries hereditary information that influences traits such as physical characteristics, personality, and susceptibility to certain health conditions. Together with the other parent’s 23 chromosomes, they create a complete set of 46 chromosomes, establishing the foundation for the child's genetic identity.
An organisms gets its chromosomes from its parent(s).
In humans, each parent contributes 23 chromosomes.In general, each parent of any species contributes the haploid number of chromosomes, which is the number of chromosomes in a single set of chromosomes.
A person inherits one set of 23 chromosomes from each parent
23 chromosomes are given from each parent.
The process by which offspring inherit one chromosome from each parent to form a pair of chromosomes is called genetic recombination. During this process, genetic material from the mother and father combines to create a unique set of chromosomes in the offspring.
Humans get 23 chromosomes from each parent, so 46 total.
Parent
It means that each of the four chromosomes that come from the male parent has a corresponding chromosomes from the female parent. ~lisa 9th grade~ :]
A cell of the testes, called a spermatocyte, has 46 chromosomes in humans. This includes 23 pairs of chromosomes, one set inherited from each parent. During the process of meiosis, the number of chromosomes is halved to 23 to create sperm cells.
Meiosis results in cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Therefore, if a parent cell has 20 chromosomes, the result of meiosis will be cells with 10 chromosomes.
