No, being the "highest" of animals does not correlate with having the most chromosomes. Chromosome numbers vary widely across species, and some simpler organisms can have more chromosomes than humans. For example, the fern Ophioglossum reticulatum has one of the highest known chromosome counts, with over 1,440 chromosomes. Human beings have 46 chromosomes, which is relatively common among mammals.

The sex of most animal is determined by special chromosomes called what?
Special chromosomes called sex chromosomes determine the sex of most animals. These chromosomes are designated as X and Y in humans, with females having two X chromosomes (XX) and males having one X and one Y chromosome (XY).
What is the ploidy of organisms that have two sets of chromosomes?
Organisms that have two sets of chromosomes are said to be diploid, meaning they have two complete sets of chromosomes (one from each parent). This is the typical chromosome number for most animals and plants.
How many chromosomes does the animal have why?
Animals typically have a specific number of chromosomes characteristic of their species. For example, humans have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) in most of their cells. Chromosomes contain genetic material, including DNA, which carries the instructions for an organism's development and functions.
Where is the DNA of most cells contained?
The Nucleus contains nearly all of the cell's DNA.
The stringy structures in the cell nucleus that contain DNA are?
chromosomes
Do animals have both X and Y chromosomes?
No, animals do not have both X and Y chromosomes. In most animals, males have XY chromosomes and females have XX chromosomes.
The sex of most animals is determined by special chromosomes called?
sex chromosomes
Which animals are heterozygous?
Most animals are considered heterozygous. This includes cats, dogs, wolves, and any other mammal. These animals have the typical chromosomes and genealogy. Most multi-cellular life exhibits these types of chromosomes.
Does food have chromosomes?

How many chromosomes does the common lilac have?
The common lilac (Syringa vulgaris) has 46 chromosomes, like most plants and animals with a double set of chromosomes for their species.
The sex of most animal is determined by special chromosomes called what?
Special chromosomes called sex chromosomes determine the sex of most animals. These chromosomes are designated as X and Y in humans, with females having two X chromosomes (XX) and males having one X and one Y chromosome (XY).
Do both plants and animals have chromosomes?
Yes. Plants and Animals have chromosomes because its their DNA. You may think plants can't reproduce, but the pollen in the flower is their cell which bees carry, drops and collects more. I hope this helped!!
