How many homologous pairs of chromosomes does a fruit fly have?

Know whether or not gametes have homologous chromosomes?
Gametes are said to have homologous chromosomes, if they have same genes arranged in same order. During gamete formation meiosis precedes, therefore, individual gamete does not have its homologous counterpart. After fertilization, in diploid nucleus, homologous chromosomes are restored.
What is homologous and non-homologous end joining in DNA repair?
Homologous end joining is a type of DNA repair where the broken DNA strands are accurately repaired using an undamaged homologous sequence as a template, ensuring that no genetic information is lost. On the other hand, non-homologous end joining is a more error-prone DNA repair mechanism that directly rejoins the broken DNA ends without the need for a homologous template, often resulting in the loss or insertion of nucleotides at the repair site.

Haploid number of a fruit fly?
The haploid number of chromosomes in a fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) is 4. This means that each cell in a fruit fly contains 4 chromosomes, with two homologous pairs.
The wing of a bat and the foreleg of an alligator are?
Homologous structures are those that have similar looks based upon a common ancestry. THE ANSWER IS HOMOLOGOUS STRUCTURES!!! On the other hand, analogous structures are structures that have the same function. Bats fly, but alligators walk.
