After telophase I of meiosis, each cell has half the number of chromosomes compared to the original diploid cell. Specifically, if the original cell had 46 chromosomes (in humans), each daughter cell will have 23 chromosomes. However, these chromosomes are still in replicated form, meaning each consists of two sister chromatids. Thus, while the chromosome count is halved, the genetic material is still duplicated.
The total of 46 chromosomes per cell is referred to as diploid.
After mitotic cell division, each daughter cell contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.
Depends on the cell. 46 is probably the number you're looking for. 23 pairs. Mature red blood cells have none. Gametes, eggs and sperm have 23, not 23 pairs.
There are 46 chromosomes per cell, with 22 pairs and an XX pair for females or an XY pair for males.
If each daughter cell has 46 chromosomes, then the total number of chromosomes in 144 daughter cells would be 144 cells × 46 chromosomes per cell = 6,624 chromosomes.
The total of 46 chromosomes per cell is referred to as diploid.
After meiosis, each daughter cell has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. For example, in humans the parent cell would have 46 chromosomes, but after meiotic cell division, the daughter cells will each have 23 chromosomes.
After mitotic cell division, each daughter cell contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Cell Division.
Same number as the parent cell
In the first division of meiosis (meiosis I), the number of chromosomes per cell is reduced by half. This reduction occurs as homologous chromosomes separate, resulting in two daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the original parent cell.
Human cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes, giving a total of 46 per cell.
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.
Depends on the cell. 46 is probably the number you're looking for. 23 pairs. Mature red blood cells have none. Gametes, eggs and sperm have 23, not 23 pairs.
Twenty-three chromosomes are in a human egg cell. 22 are autosomes, the other is an X chromosome.
A single complete set of chromosomes is called a haploid set of chromosomes. It is generally represented by the letter N. In humans for example, there are a total of 46 chromosomes per somatic cell. Since there are two copies of each chromosome. the 2N number for human is 46 and N = 23.
