Gametes have half the number of chromosomes that most cells in the organism have. Most human cells have 46 chromosomes, but eggs and sperm have 23 chromosomes each.
The reproductive cells of an organism each contribute half of the required genetic material to create the offspring. This means that each reproductive cell has 1n, while the organism has 2n chromosomes.
it is always half so 5 chromosomes. -By SciienceFreak
It will destroy cells in the organism
The process of producing sperm cells is called spermatogenesis. Sperm production begins before puberty through the increase in the number of precursor cells called spermatogonia. They in turn double in number through mitotic cell division and become primary and secondary spermatocytes. Then through two stages of cellular division called meiosis, the primary spermatocytes become 4 spermatids, which then further develop into spermatozoa, or sperm.With regard to the cellular divisions involved, mitosis maintains the same number of chromosomes (46 in humans) in the nucleus of the resulting twin daughter cells after division, whereas in meiosis, the four resulting daughter cells have only 23 chromosomes each.
An organism uses electric current in its nervous system . This electric current , produced by the brain are transported to certain nerve cells found all throughout the body .
There are 46 chromosomes in the body cells of organisms which have a relationship with the sex cells.
The number of chromosomes in sperm cells varies among organisms. Without knowing the specific organism mentioned above, it is not possible to determine the exact number of chromosomes in its sperm cells.
Organisms grow by cell division or mitosis which causes increase in number of cells , and then by increase in size of cell .
No, a gamete has half the number of chromosomes as compared to the organisms body cells.
The somatic (body) cells of that organism is the diploid number, 18. The number of chromosomes in the gametes ( sex cells) is half of the diploid number or 9.
All cells within an organism will have the same number of chromosomes, which is the diploid number. The gametes, on the other hand, will have the haploid number of chromosomes.
The gamete or haploid cell of an organism contains half as many chromosomes as a diploid body cell. An organism that has 32 chromosomes would produce a gamete with 16 chromosomes.
16 (haploid number = n, and diploid number =2n) so if n=8, the diploid number is 2x8 = 16
Biologists use dividing cells to determine the number of chromosomes in an organism because when cells go through mitosis (the process of dividing) the chromosomes become much more visible.
I have the same queston
The reproductive cells of an organism each contribute half of the required genetic material to create the offspring. This means that each reproductive cell has 1n, while the organism has 2n chromosomes.
this is true. the gamete has half the number of chromosomes..
