A zygote will develop into a female if the?

A zygote will develop into a female if it receives two X sex chromosomes from the parents during fertilization.


How many chromosomes does the zygote receive from the mother?

The zygote receives 23 chromosomes from the mother. It inherits one set of chromosomes from each parent, with 23 chromosomes coming from the egg (mother) and 23 chromosomes coming from the sperm (father).


Where are the chromosomes in the zygote?

chromosomes are present in the nucleus of zygote.


What happen to chromosomes as the zygote continues to divide?

As the zygote continues to divide through the process of mitosis, the chromosomes replicate and are evenly distributed to each daughter cell. This ensures that each new cell receives a complete set of chromosomes and genetic information. Eventually, this leads to the formation of an embryo with multiple cells containing identical copies of the original chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are there in the zygote of a crayfish whose diploid number is 112?

The zygote of a crayfish with a diploid number of 112 chromosomes would contain 56 chromosomes. This is because the zygote receives one copy of each chromosome from each parent, resulting in half the number of chromosomes of the diploid number.


Referring to chromosomes what is the zygote?

The usual number of chromosomes in a baby's cell ( zygote ) is 46 . 23 chromosomes from both the male's reproductive cell ( sperm ) and the female's reproductive cell ( egg ) .


Are chromosomes found in singles?

chromosomes are found in every individual and being single has nothing to do with it. chromosomes are and organized segment of your DNA that holds your genes. when crossed with another individual, the zygote ( child ) receives its genetic makeup from the parent's chromosomes (genes).


Does a zygote have double or triple the number of chromosomes that a gamete has?

A zygote has twice the amount of chromosomes as a gamete.


What is the number of chromosomes in the zygote if the parent's reproductive cells or gametes contain 12 chromosomes each?

The zygote would have 24 chromosomes, as it inherits half of its chromosomes from each parent. So, if each parent's gamete has 12 chromosomes, the zygote would receive 12 chromosomes from the egg and 12 chromosomes from the sperm, resulting in a total of 24 chromosomes.


What does female gametes fused with male gametes make?

Female gametes fused with male gametes make a zygote, which is a fertilized egg with a full set of chromosomes. This zygote then develops into an embryo and eventually a new individual through the process of cell division and differentiation.


How many chromosomes would be in a zygote if the bird has 30 chromosomes?

A zygote is a fertilized egg cell, so it is diploid and thus has a full set of DNA. If the adult has 30 pairs of chromosomes, the zygote would have 30 pairs. If there are 30 chromosomes, then the zygote will have 60 (30 from the mother and 30 from the father). It comes down to whether you meant individual chromosomes or pairs of chromosomes.


Does gamete have more chromosomes then a zygote?

No, a zygote has 46, a gamete has 23
