Do you agree or disagree that homologous chromosomes are found in gametes?

Have to say Nay. Two chromosomes are 'homologous' , to my understanding, only if each is IDENTICAL with the other - this means a pair. Gametes are haploid, meaning that only one copy of each (normally diploid or paired) chromosome (s) is (are) present.

True or false in humans each pair of the 22 maternal autosomes has a homologous paternal chromosome?

True. In humans, each pair of the 22 maternal autosomes has a homologous paternal chromosome, meaning that the chromosomes are similar in terms of size, shape, and genes they carry. This ensures that genetic information from both parents is represented in the offspring's genome.


Is homologous recombination a type of mutation?

No. A mutation can change an allele into any other allele. Homologous recombination can only change an allele to the allele of the homologous chromosome.

The exceptions to the rule that every chromosome is part if a homologous pair are the?

The exceptions to the rule that every chromosome is part of a homologous pair are the gametes. Gametes are eggs and sperm, and each cell has only 23 chromosomes, which form pairs in the zygote after fertilization.


How many homologous chromosomes do males have?

How many homologous pairs of chromosomes does a diploid human cell have?

A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.


How many copies do you have of each chromosome?

There will be two copies of each chromosome in all somatic cells called homologous chromosome..In case of reproductive cells there will be only one set during gamete formation...
