What else can I help you with?
What are pair of similar chromosomes called?
HomologousWe receive one complete set of chromosomes from each parent. This means that for each chromosome, say chromosome 7, there are two copies in every cell of our bodies: the maternal and paternal copies of chromosome 7.The two copies of one chromosome are called a pair of homologous chromosomes.
What is the 22 chromosome called?
The 22nd chromosome is called the autosomal chromosome, as it is one of the non-sex chromosomes found in humans. Each cell typically contains two copies of chromosome 22, one inherited from each parent. It contains around 500 to 800 genes involved in various biological functions.
How does the chromosome number in a diploid cell differ from the chromosome number in a haploid cell?
A diploid cell contains two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, while a haploid cell contains only one set of chromosomes. In humans, a diploid cell has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), whereas a haploid cell has 23 chromosomes.
What is a chromosome called with matching information?
A chromosome with matching information is called a homologous chromosome. Homologous chromosomes have the same genes at the same loci, although they may have different versions of those genes. These chromosomes are inherited, one from each parent.
What is the leg of a chromosome?
The leg of a chromosome refers to one of the two strands of a chromosome that are joined at the centromere. In a replicated chromosome, each leg is called a chromatid, with one leg being the sister chromatid of the other. During cell division, these chromatids are separated and distributed to daughter cells. The term "leg" is often used in a more informal context to describe the structure of the chromosome.
Which type of eukaryotic cell contains two types of each chromosome?
A cell with two copies of each chromosome is called a diploid cell. A cell with one copy is called a haploid cell.
What is cell with one of each kind of chromosome?
If you mean haploid, as in half of each chromosome, or containing only one chromatid from each full chromosome, thenthe cell is called haploid.
What is a Cell that has two copies of each chromosone called?
A cell that has two copies of each chromosome is called a diploid cell. This means that each chromosome in the cell has a matching homologous chromosome. Humans have diploid cells in their body, with a total of 46 chromosomes arranged in 23 pairs.
A cell with one of each kind of chromosome is what?
If you mean haploid, as in half of each chromosome, or containing only one chromatid from each full chromosome, thenthe cell is called haploid.
Why is the cell called a diploid cell?
Unlike the haploid cell which consists of one chromosome, the somatic (diploid) cell contains two chromosomes (one from the mother and one from the father)
What is a cell with one chromosome?
haploid
What caused anomaly when one daughter cells gets two copies of a chromosome?
The process by which a daughter cell accidentally get two copies of a chromosome is called "nondisjuction".
What are pair of similar chromosomes called?

A somatic cell having two of each type of chromosome has chromosome number?
A somatic cell with two of each type of chromosome has a diploid chromosome number. This means that the cell has a complete set of chromosomes, one from each parent.
What is a cell with one-half the regular number of a chromosome?
A sperm cell or an egg cell.
What cell contains only one sex cell?
In males, sperm contain only one sex chromosome. In females, eggs contain only one sex chromosome.
