The term that describes organisms having chromosomes that are exactly the same is "homozygous." In a homozygous organism, both alleles for a specific gene are identical, whether they are dominant or recessive. This genetic uniformity can affect traits and characteristics passed down through generations.

The number of chromosomes. For example, humans have 46.


If two organisms have the same full set number of chromosomes are the always members of the same species?

Not necessarily. While many members of the same species may have the same number of chromosomes, it does not guarantee that two organisms with the same number of chromosomes are of the same species. Chromosome number is just one characteristic used to define species, but other factors like genetic makeup, morphology, and ability to reproduce with one another are also important in determining species classification.

How many chromosomes does each new cell contain(After mitosis) if the original cell had 52 chromosomes?

52 - mitosis produces daughter cells with exactly the same chromosomes of the original cell.


How many chromosomes do body cells of organisms have in relationship to the sex cells of the same organism?

Body cells typically have a diploid number of chromosomes, meaning they have two sets of chromosomes. Sex cells, or gametes, have a haploid number of chromosomes, meaning they have one set of chromosomes. This allows for the correct number of chromosomes to be restored upon fertilization.


Why is it important that sex cells have exactly the number of chromosomes as the body cells?

The DO NOT "have exactly the number of chromosomes as the body cells", they have 1/2 that number. This is so that when two sex cells come together to form an embryo, the cells of that embryo have exactly the same number of chromosomes as the body cells of the two parents and not twice that number.


Ture or false all organisms have the same number of chromosomes?

False. Different species have different numbers of chromosomes. For example, humans have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), while dogs have 78 chromosomes (39 pairs).

Why do reproductive cells need to have half the normal number of chromosomes?

Humans and other organisms that reproduce sexually need to have half the normal number of chromosomes to make sure their offspring have the same number of chromosomes as they do - the father and mother each contribute half of their chromosomes (sperm and egg).
