If a body cell has 22 chromosomes what would be the chromosomes what would be the chromosomes count for the reproductive cells?
Reproductive cells have half the number of chromosomes as body cells, so if a body cell has 22 chromosomes, then the reproductive cells (sperm or egg) would have 11 chromosomes. This is because during sexual reproduction, the sperm and egg combine to form a new cell with the full number of chromosomes.
How many chromosomes would be found in a male fruit fly regular body cell?
there is 4 pairs of chromosomes in each cell for a fly!
Wheat has 42 chromosomes. How many chromosomes are in their body cells?
The 'body' cells have 42 chromosomes. The sex cells would have 21 chromosomes. 3 X 7
If the gamete of a fruit fly contains 4 chromosomes home many chromosomes would you find in a body cell of a fruit fly?
If a fruit fly gamete contains 4 chromosomes, then a body cell of a fruit fly would typically contain 8 chromosomes. This is because the gamete only contains half the number of chromosomes found in a normal body cell, following the principle of haploid and diploid states of cells in sexual reproduction.
Can the number of chromosomes in a reproductive cell be greater than the number chromosomes in an organism's body cell?
No. The reproductive cells (eggs, sperm, ova and pollen) all contain half the number of chromosomes of an organisms body cell. This means that at fertilization the two reproductive cells (or gametes) combine to form a single cell with the appropriate number of chromosomes.If a gamete had more chromosomes than a normal cell then fertilization would lead to even more chromosomes and an offspring that would be seriously genetically compromised.
Why do gametes need 12 the number of chromosomes of a regular body cell?
Gametes require half the number of chromosomes of a somatic (regular) cell as gametes are the sex cells. When gametes combine to make a zygote (a fertilised cell), the complete number of chromosomes will be present.
If a body cell has 22 chromosomes what would be the chromosomes what would be the chromosomes count for the reproductive cells?
Reproductive cells have half the number of chromosomes as body cells, so if a body cell has 22 chromosomes, then the reproductive cells (sperm or egg) would have 11 chromosomes. This is because during sexual reproduction, the sperm and egg combine to form a new cell with the full number of chromosomes.
How many chromosomes does a fertilised egg have?
A fertilized egg, or zygote, typically has 46 chromosomes. This is a result of the coming together of the egg (23 chromosomes) from the mother and the sperm (23 chromosomes) from the father during fertilization.
How many chromosomes are in a grasshopper each body cell?
A grasshopper has 24 chromosomes in each body cell.
If a sperm from a bull contains 30 chromosomes then how many chromosomes are found in the bull's liver cell?
If a regular diploid body cell, (liver, skin etc..) have 60 chromosomes then the gamete (reproductive cell ie sperm/egg) have half that numberof chromosomes- So the Bull's liver cell contains 60 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes would be found in a male fruit fly regular body cell?
there is 4 pairs of chromosomes in each cell for a fly!
Wheat has 42 chromosomes. How many chromosomes are in their body cells?
The 'body' cells have 42 chromosomes. The sex cells would have 21 chromosomes. 3 X 7
How many chromosomes are your body chromosomes?
We have 46 chromosomes in our body. In each cell, there's 23 pairs of chromosomes.
How does a fertilized egg inherit information?
Fertilized eggs inherit information through their chromosomes. They receive their chromosomes from their mother and their father. The information is encoded on their DNA.Sperm cell- Contains the genetic information from the male parent (23 chromosomes)Egg cell- Contains genetic information from the female parent (23 chromosomes)The sperm enters the egg and the egg becomes fertilised. The fertilised egg is called a zygote. The zygote has 46 chromosomes, information from both parents.
How do the chromosomes of a sperm cell differ from chromosomes in other cells of the body?
They have less chromosomes than a normal cell.
Will the baby have the characteristics of an egg cell or the body cell?
The baby will have a combination of characteristics from both the egg cell and the body cell. The egg cell contributes half of the genetic material (23 chromosomes) and the body cell contributes the other half (23 chromosomes) to form a complete set (46 chromosomes) in the baby.
How many chomosomes in your body?
In a normal Human body cell (not a gamete) there are 46 chromosomes. This is not the same number of chromosomes in our bodies, only in one cell, and there are trillions of cells in the human body. In a gamete (a sperm cell or egg cell) there are 23 chromosomes. When the sperm and egg cell nuclei fuse in fertilisation, a diploid cell of 46 chromosomes is produced.
