What is the term for having two chromosomes of each pair- Normal body cells?
Diploid is the term for cells that contain two chromosomes of each pair. Euploid is a term meaning normal body cells.
Haploid cells are cells that have?
Haploid cells are cells that contain one set of chromosomes, meaning they have half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell. In humans, haploid cells are sperm and egg cells, which contain 23 chromosomes each. During fertilization, a haploid sperm cell and a haploid egg cell combine to form a diploid zygote with 46 chromosomes.
What produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original cell?
Meiosis produces new cells with half as many chromosomes as the original cell. During meiosis, a diploid cell undergoes two rounds of division to produce four haploid daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Is meiosis or mitosis that produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original cell?
Meiosis.
If an organism has 16 chromosomes in each of its egg cells the organisms diploid number is 32?
Yes, that is correct. If an organism has 16 chromosomes in its egg cells, its diploid number would be 32. This means that in its somatic cells, which are diploid, it would have 32 chromosomes, with each chromosome having a pair.
What produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the origianal cells?
I believe it is Meiosis that produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original parent cells.
Suppose an organism's heart cells have 10 chromosomes How many chromosomes will its egg cells have?
The egg cells will also have 10 chromosomes. Gametes, such as egg cells, are haploid, meaning they contain half the number of chromosomes as normal body cells. In this case, being haploid means having 10 chromosomes instead of 20 like normal body cells.
What two cells are the exception in not having 46 chromosomes?
sperm and egg, each have 23.
What is the term for having two chromosomes of each pair- Normal body cells?
Diploid is the term for cells that contain two chromosomes of each pair. Euploid is a term meaning normal body cells.
How many chromosomes do gametes have?
Gametes, such as sperm and egg cells in humans, contain half the number of chromosomes compared to other cells in the body. This means that in humans, gametes have 23 chromosomes each, instead of the usual 46 chromosomes found in most body cells.
Haploid cells are cells that have?
Haploid cells are cells that contain one set of chromosomes, meaning they have half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell. In humans, haploid cells are sperm and egg cells, which contain 23 chromosomes each. During fertilization, a haploid sperm cell and a haploid egg cell combine to form a diploid zygote with 46 chromosomes.
If Eukaryote cell has 20 chrosomes and undergoes meiosis what is the resulting number of cells and chromosomes?
After meiosis in a eukaryotic cell with 20 chromosomes, four haploid cells are produced, each with 10 chromosomes. This process involves two rounds of cell division, resulting in the formation of gametes with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
What produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original cell?
Meiosis produces new cells with half as many chromosomes as the original cell. During meiosis, a diploid cell undergoes two rounds of division to produce four haploid daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Why is it necessary to have a haploid cell at the end of meiosis?
In most plants and animals, each cell has two copies of each chromosome. Cells having 2 of each kind of chromosome are called diploid. For instance, human cells have 46 chromosomes (23 different kinds of chromosomes, and 2 copies of each kind). They are diploid. Now think about what happens when a sperm fertilizes an egg. If a sperm has 46 chromosomes, and an egg has 46 chromosomes, then you might think that the fertilized egg would have 92 chromosomes since it is formed by putting together the sperm and the egg. But this doesn't happen. Why not?Sperm cells and egg cells are produced by a process of cell division called meiosis that cuts the number of chromosomes in half (each sperm cell has 23 chromosomes and each egg cell has 23 chromosomes). Then when the sperm and egg combine during fertilization, they produce a cell that has the normal number of chromosomes again. (23 + 23 = 46). Meiosis reduces the number of chromosomes by putting one of each kind instead of two of each kind in each sperm and in each egg. Cells that have only one copy of each kind of chromosome are called haploid. Sperm cells and egg cells are haploid. All other cells in the body have two of each kind of chromosome and are called diploid.
Is meiosis or mitosis that produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original cell?
Meiosis.
A cell with 10 chromosomes undergoes mitosis?
During mitosis, the cell's chromatin condenses into chromosomes. Each chromosome is replicated, ensuring that the cell retains the same genetic material. The replicated chromosomes then line up at the center of the cell before being separated into two identical sets, each containing 10 chromosomes. Finally, the cell divides into two daughter cells, each with a complete set of 10 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes of coleus having 24 chromosomes are present in each cell at the stage of mitosis or meiosis indicated?
At the stage of mitosis or meiosis, coleus cells with 24 chromosomes would have 24 chromosomes present in each cell. In mitosis, the cell divides into two daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes. In meiosis, a specialized cell division process, two rounds of division result in four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
