8. 2^3
An organism with a diploid number of six chromosomes has three pairs of chromosomes (2n = 6). During meiosis, independent assortment allows for the random distribution of these chromosome pairs into gametes. The number of unique gametes produced can be calculated using the formula (2^n), where (n) is the number of chromosome pairs. Thus, for this organism, (2^3 = 8) unique gametes can be produced via independent assortment.
D. Be produced by meiosis
An organism with six pairs of chromosomes has a total of 12 chromosomes. The number of different gametes that can be produced through independent assortment is calculated using the formula (2^n), where (n) is the number of chromosome pairs. In this case, (2^6 = 64). Therefore, the organism can produce 64 different gametes.
In sexual reproduction, an organism inherits its chromosomes from both parents. Each parent contributes half of the total number of chromosomes required for the offspring. These chromosomes contain the genetic information necessary for the development and characteristics of the organism.
There are 23 chromosomes in each sperm produced by a human male.

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.
If the body cells have 10 chromosomes, the sex cells produced during meiosis would have 5 chromosomes. This is because meiosis involves two rounds of cell division, resulting in cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original body cells.
Meiosis 1 is the process of separating chromosomes (independent assortment). Independent assortment is the random assortment of chromosomes. So without meiosis, there would be no way to separate the chromosomes randomly. Hope that helps(:
8 different gametes can be produced from the genotype WwXXYyZZ through independent assortment and random segregation of chromosomes during meiosis.
The difference is with an asexually produced organism, the organism is created using only one parent. With a sexually produced organism, the organism is produced using two parents
There are 23 chromosomes in each sperm produced by a human male.
