46 in humans, which is the same as 23 pairs
Different species of fish have different numbers of chromosomes. Try asking for a specific species of fish and someone will help you.
algae, can have as many as 140 chromosomes
n/2 where n is the total number of chromosomes normally present in that animal.For example humans have 46 chromosomes in a somatic cell, and 23 chromosomes in a germ cell (sperm / egg).Different species often have different numbers of chromosomes. In fact different numbers of chromosomes are why a donkey and a horse can mate to produce a mule, but the mule cannot reproduce.
False. Organisms may have varying numbers of chromosomes. For example, humans have 46 chromosomes, while bacteria typically have one circular chromosome. Plants can have different numbers of chromosomes depending on the species.

There are half as many chromosomes in gametes than in normal body cells.
It depends on the type of cell. In ordinary somatic (body) cells it is the same as the parent cell. In sex cells it is half the number. Many animals and plants have numbers of chromosomes that are different from human cells numbers.
Mold can have varying numbers of chromosomes depending on the species. Typically, molds have a haploid chromosome number, which means they have one set of chromosomes. This can range from 1 to several dozen chromosomes.
Most orchids have 2n = 38 chromosomes, but chromosome numbers can vary among different orchid species.

Nondisjunction results in cells with abnormal numbers of chromosomes due to chromosomes not separating properly in meiosis. this causes some cells to end up with to many chromosomes and others to end up with not enough chromosomes. It messes up cell division and development and can lead to death or genetic disorders like down syndrome.

It varies from each animal, to a human. For example a human sperm has 23 chromosomes, while another animal, plant, fruit, or vergtable has different numbers.
A woodchuck, also known as a groundhog, has a total of 32 chromosomes. This includes 16 pairs of homologous chromosomes, similar to the chromosome count in many other mammals. Chromosome numbers can vary widely across different species, but for woodchucks, 32 is the established count.
Since humans have 26 chromosomes and are mammals that the chomosones will be even.
No. Different species have different numbers of chromosomes. For example, chimpanzees have 48 chromosomes, domestic cats have 38 chromosomes, and domestic dogs have 78 chromosomes.
