Gamete is the term that refers to the individual haploid sex cells, the egg or the sperm, and contains only half of the necessary genetic information for a new organism. A zygote is the diploid result of fertilization between an egg and sperm, which will ultimately grow into the organism.

Out of the following choices which gamete(s) will result in a zygote that will exhibit monosomy For this problem assume that the other gamete contains the normal haploid amount of chromosomes.?
To exhibit monosomy in a zygote, one gamete must contribute only one copy of a chromosome instead of the normal two. Therefore, if one gamete has a missing chromosome (e.g., due to a nondisjunction event leading to a gamete with 22 chromosomes instead of 23), it will result in a zygote that has only one copy of that chromosome when fused with a normal haploid gamete. In summary, the gamete with the missing chromosome (monosomic) is responsible for the resulting zygote exhibiting monosomy.
How does the chromosome content of a parent cell compare with that of a gamete?
A parent cell is diploid, meaning it has two sets of chromosomes. In contrast, a gamete is haploid, containing only one set of chromosomes. This difference in chromosome content is important for maintaining the correct number of chromosomes in the offspring when the gametes combine during fertilization.
This extra chromosome in a gamete occurs as a result of?
This extra chromosome in a gamete occurs as a result of a process called nondisjunction, where chromosomes fail to separate properly during meiosis. As a result, one gamete may end up with an extra chromosome, leading to conditions such as Down syndrome when that gamete contributes to fertilization. Nondisjunction can happen during either the first or second meiotic division and can affect any of the chromosomes.

If a human gamete with an extra chromosome participates in fertilization with a normal gamete what conditions result?
It depends on what's missing. Zygotes missing a chromosome (monosomy) have 45 chromosomes and many do survive; some human monosomies are monosomy 7, 11 or 13. A monosomy X results in Turner syndrome; there must be at least one X chromosome, or the embryo won't survive.

Why do gamete contain less chromosome than parent cells?
The gamete is supposed to join with another gamete, and combine their chromosomes into a single cell.

What is the chromosome number of gamete?
They have half the number of the somatic (parent) cell. So if a parent cell had 46 chromosomes in its nucleus, then its gamete would have 23(one chromosome from each pair).
What effect does nondisjunction have on the chromosome number of the gametes?
It gives one of the gametes an extra chromosome and leaves the other gamete with one less chromosome.

Which parents gamete normally determines the sex of the child?
The father's gamete determines the sex of the child. Specifically, the presence or absence of a Y chromosome in the father's sperm will determine if the child will be male (Y chromosome present) or female (no Y chromosome).
How many chromosomes does a male gametes have?
It is different for different species but in Humans, each sperm (male gamete) has 23 chromosomes out of which 22 are autosomes and 1 is a sex chromosome.
