That depends entirely on the species.

First of all, chromosomal arrangements are different per species. Bananas have an entirely different set of chromosomes than us apes. We both have a chromosome numbered 'chromosome 7', but they're different chromosomes (although we do share many of the same genes).

As to the part of the cell where chromosomes may be found; that too differs from one organism to the other. Humans, bananas, Spiders and algae all belong to the domain of Eukaryota, which is characterized by the fact that its genetic material is confined to the cell nucleus, wrapped in an internal membrane. In bacteria and archaea, part of the domain of Prokaryota, the chromosomes (or chromosome: archaea often have one single circular chromosome) float freely in the cell.

Is the part of the cell contains the allele for cystic fibrosis the nucleus?

Yes, the allele for cystic fibrosis is located in the nucleus of the cell. Specifically, the gene responsible for cystic fibrosis, called CFTR, is found on chromosome 7 within the nucleus. The nucleus houses the cell's genetic material, including all the alleles that contribute to an individual's traits and conditions.


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 are the name of 23 chromosomes in human body?

No, there are 46 chromosomes in one cell. A gamete, or sex cell, has 23 chromosomes because during fertilization, the female and male gametes (egg and sperm, respectively) come together to form a new cell with 46 chromosomes


How many chromosome are in a pink bread mold gamete?

A pink bread mold gamete typically contains half the number of chromosomes found in a regular somatic cell. In the case of the pink bread mold, Neurospora crassa, the haploid number of chromosomes is typically 7.


Cystic fibrosis is it monosomy 21?

No. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations found on chromosome 7.


What condition is carried on a chromosome other then the sex chromosome?

The gene that causes cystic fibrosis is located on chromosome 7, which is an autosome, not a sex chromosome.


Did Mendel find all the 7 traits on 7 different chromosome?

Gregor Mendel studied seven different traits in pea plants, but these traits were not necessarily found on seven distinct chromosomes. Instead, each trait is controlled by genes located on different chromosomes, and the principles of Mendelian genetics apply to the inheritance of these traits independently of their chromosomal location.

Which gene causes cystic fibrosis?

Cystic Fibrosis is caused by the gene which codes for the protein CFTR--Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator, which is found on chromosome 7. The protein transports chloride ions across epithelial cell membranes.
