the diploid number of chromosomes is the number of chromosomes that organism is haploid for times 2. It looks like this: 2n.

Humans have 23 chromosomes each. So the mother has 23 chromosomes (this # is the haploid # of chromosomes for humans), plus the father who also has 23 chromosomes, is the diploid number of chromosomes, 46.

What percent of chromosomes that are in a diploid body cell are put into a haploid sex cell?

Fifty percent chromosomes from a diploid cell are put into a haploid sex cell. This is achieved by meiosis.


Is a sex cell a diploid cell?

No, sex cells contain half the number of chromosomes that somatic (non-sex) cells contain. They are therefore haploidcells.


How many chromosomes are there in a fruit fly sex cell?

Hamster sex cells have 22 chromosomes each.


If an organism had 5 chromosomes in a haploid sex cell (n) then how many chromosomes would there be in its diploid body cell (2n) 1 point?

If an organism has 5 chromosomes in a haploid sex cell (n), then it would have 10 chromosomes in its diploid body cell (2n). This is because diploid cells contain two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent. Therefore, 2n equals 2 times n, which in this case is 2 times 5, resulting in 10 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are contained in a human male gamete cell?

In a gamete (sex) cell, there are 23 chromosomes. A gamete is a haploid, or n, whereas a somatic (normal) cell is a diploid, or 2n, and has 46 chromosomes.


What is a cell with pairs of chromosomes called?

Somatic (diploid) cells have pairs of chromosomes. They have 46 chromosomes, making 23 pairs.Gametes are sex cells (eggs and sperm), they only have 23 chromosomes total. This is because they will combine with another gamete to form an embryo that will have 46.


How many chromosomes will each skunk sex cell have?

Skunks, like many mammals, have a diploid chromosome number of 38. This means that each skunk's sex cells (sperm and eggs) will have half that number, resulting in 19 chromosomes in each sex cell.


How many chromosomes are present in human haploid and diploid cells?

human diploid numbers are 46 chromosomes (the total amount of chromosomes) and the haploid number is 23 (half the number of chromosomes) in meiosis the desired number is the haploid number for gametes (sex cells) and it becomes the diploid number after fertilization and for mitosis its the diploid number because it wants to maintain its chromosomes since its not sexual reproduction


Are the chromosome single or double?

In a body cell, there are two sets of chromosomes, which is the diploid condition. In a sex cell, there is one set of chromosomes, which is the haploid condition.


Is a stomach cell a haploid or a diploid cell?

All of the cells in a human body, including the stomach are diploid. There is one cell that is not diploid and that is the sex cell. It is haploid.


How many chromosome are present in human diploid cell?

A human diploid cell contains 46 chromosomes, organized in 23 pairs. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).


What cell would a hiploid be?

A haploid cell is a sex-chromosome without pair. A diploid cell is a sex-chromosome with pairs . People have 22 chromosome pairs and 2 chromosomes they do not have pairs. A man has XY chromosomes and a woman XX chromosomes.
