Haploid cells are "sex cells" that are found in the ovaries or testes of a sexually reproducing organism.
Sex Cells.
To find the total number of chromosomes in an organism, you would multiply the haploid number by 2. This is because the haploid number represents half of the total number of chromosomes in a cell. So, total number of chromosomes = haploid number x 2.
Not sure what level you're asking this on; pollen is not really haploid (it has several cells). Anyway, here goes: In normal sexual reproduction, half of each parents' DNA combines to form a new genetic code. A haploid cell has half the number of chromosomes contained in a diploid (normal) cell. This means that the offspring are a mixture of the characteristics of the parent organisms, creating variety within the population. If pollen was not haploid, it could not provide genetic material capable of binding to the ovum's genes. Pollen actually contains 3 haploid cells; so a pollen grain is not a single cell. When it meets the stamen of another plant, one cell forms a tube going down to the ova, acting as a sort of navigation system, while 2 of the cells follow. It was at this point that this mornings genetics lecture ended, so to find out what happens next, I'll have to wait until next Monday. Hope some of that was useful :)
Y dont we know how many chromosomes does a bat have?we should know this for my class i mean come on 4realz u are not helping find this answerCola33: A bat has 8 choromosomes, which means that she/he has 4 pairs of chromosomes, I'm pretty sure.Y dont we know how many chromosomes does a bat have?we should know this for my class i mean come on 4realz u are not helping find this answerCola33: A bat has 8 choromosomes, which means that she/he has 4 pairs of chromosomes, I'm pretty sure.
If a fruit fly gamete contains 4 chromosomes, then a body cell of a fruit fly would typically contain 8 chromosomes. This is because the gamete only contains half the number of chromosomes found in a normal body cell, following the principle of haploid and diploid states of cells in sexual reproduction.
we find chromosomes in DNA. i think

The "haploid number" is the number of chromosomes in a given organism's reproductive cell (i.e., either sperm or egg or similar, depending on the species) or it's the number of pairs of chromosomes in an organism. They are easier to count just before mitosis or during the interphase of meiosis. So put a cell under a microscope, make sure it is in the right phase of reproduction and count the little "X's".
If the diploid number of the plant is ten, then its haploid number is 5. Since triploid refers to three times the haploid number, then a triploid plant would have 15 chromosomes.
30 because the spore is already haploid, and the spermatozoids and egg meet up to make a 60 zygote
Diploid means to contain two sets of chromosomes. This is what the somatic (non-sex) cells of most organisms are. Haploid means to contain half the number of chromosomes of a diploid cell. This is what gametes (sex cells - sperm/egg) are.
Number of Homologous Chromosomes in GametesGametes contain 23 paired chromosomes. Gametes are haploid because they are sex cells to be combined with other haploid sex cells of the opposite gender to form the required 46 chromosomes that form a zygote (a future child), which is diploid.

12 it has double that of the sperm. this is because only half the chromosomes are passed on from each parent so that when the sperm and egg combine they have the correct ammount of chromosomes. sperm (and egg) cells are called gametes and are haploid and are produced by meiosis where as all other cells are diploid and produced by mitosis.

we find chromosomes in DNA. i think
