Antilopine kangaroos, like other macropodids, have a diploid chromosome number of 16. Therefore, their gametes (sperm and eggs) contain half this number, resulting in 8 chromosomes in each gamete.
Humans have 23 chromosomes in their gametes, which are sperm and egg cells. This is half the number of chromosomes found in a somatic cell, which has 46 chromosomes.
Sperm cells, or gametes normally have 23 chromosomes each.
Human gametes have 23 chromosomes each, half of the total number of chromosomes found in regular human cells (which is 46). During fertilization, when a sperm and an egg combine, the resulting zygote will have a total of 46 chromosomes.
Deer mice, like other mammals, have a diploid number of chromosomes. For deer mice (genus Peromyscus), the diploid number is typically 40 chromosomes. Therefore, in their gametes, which are haploid, there would be 20 chromosomes.
For a species with three pair of chromosomes how many gametic combinations are possible?
Haploid gametes have half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell, so in humans, there are 23 chromosomes in a haploid gamete.
The llama has 74 chromosomes.
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes - therefore if the diploid number is 22, the gametes would have 11 chromosomes.
In human gametes, chromosomes are not paired. Instead, each gamete has one set of 23 chromosomes, and is said to be haploid.
Each gamete has only 23 chromosomes
Humans have 23 chromosomes in their gametes, which are sperm and egg cells. This is half the number of chromosomes found in a somatic cell, which has 46 chromosomes.
23
Sperm cells, or gametes normally have 23 chromosomes each.
If a somatic cell has 30 chromosomes, then the gametes produced by that cell would contain 15 chromosomes. Gametes, like sperm and egg cells, are haploid cells containing half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells, which are diploid.
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
There are half as many chromosomes in gametes than in normal body cells.
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
