Chromosomes

One cell would receive all the DNA, and the other would receive none. The one that receives no DNA would die since the cell needs an intact genome to function, and the other cell would probably die too. Having too many copies of chromosomes can be fatal, and I would expect that having double the needed DNA would kill the cell.

It depends on the cell. If the cell is a non sex cell, the daughter cell has 46 chromosomes, if it a human cell.

If it is a gamete, it has 23, half the number of the parent cell. This is in a human as well.

Yes, there are chromosomes in the white blood cells found in blood. White blood cells contain genetic material in the form of chromosomes, which carry the individual's unique DNA. These chromosomes are important for genetic testing and can provide information about a person's health and ancestry.

Autosomes are chromosomes that do not determine gender (sex chromosomes). In humans, autosomes are the 22 pairs of chromosomes that are the same in males and females. These chromosomes contain genes responsible for various traits and characteristics, other than those related to sexual development.

No, cystic fibrosis affects males and females equally. It is an inherited genetic disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, which can be passed down from each parent who carries a mutated gene.

A female grasshopper typically has 24 chromosomes.

A mother have 46 chromosomes and a father have 46 chromosomes when they come together in fertilization these chromosomes splits 23 from the mother (egg) and 23 from the father (sperms) and so forming the new zygote which is the baby with 46 chromosomes

It is because males produce sperm cells with the X chromosome and sperm cells with the Y chromosome. If a sperm cell with a Y chromosome fertilizes an egg, then that child would be a boy, as the Y chromosome produces male offspring. If a sperm cell with a X chromosome fertilizes an egg, then the child would be a girl, as X is the female chromosome. The mother always passes on a X chromosome, but the father can pass on an X or a Y and thus determine the sex of the baby.

Proteus syndrome is not caused by a specific gene on a particular chromosome; instead, it is thought to be due to a somatic mutation (mutation occurring after fertilization) in the AKT1 gene. This mutation leads to overgrowth of certain tissues in the body, resulting in the characteristic features of the syndrome.

A reverse segment within a chromosome refers to a region where the sequence of genetic material is inverted or reversed in orientation compared to the normal arrangement. This inversion can disrupt the normal function of genes within that region and may lead to genetic disorders or abnormalities.

Cystic fibrosis mainly affects the lungs, pancreas, and liver. In the lungs, it causes the production of thick mucus, leading to breathing difficulties and increased risk of infections. In the pancreas, it can obstruct the ducts, impairing digestion and nutrient absorption. In the liver, it can lead to liver disease and complications.

The chromosomes become invisible during interphase in the cell cycle, specifically during the G1, S, and G2 phases. This is because the chromosomes are in a less condensed state and are unravelled into thin, thread-like structures called chromatin.

Having an equal number of chromosomes allows for successful reproduction through the process of meiosis, where the number of chromosomes is halved to produce gametes. This ensures that offspring will have the correct number of chromosomes when they receive genetic material from each parent. Having an equal number of chromosomes also promotes genetic diversity through recombination during meiosis.

The 'body' cells have 42 chromosomes. The sex cells would have 21 chromosomes.

A carp cell typically contains 100 chromosomes. This is because carps are polyploid organisms, meaning they have multiple sets of chromosomes.

Chromosomes in bacteria cells carry the genetic information necessary for the cell to function and reproduce. They contain the bacterial DNA in a single circular structure, and are essential for controlling the cell's growth and metabolism.

Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes containing genes for the same traits at the same locations, one inherited from each parent. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate and recombine to create genetic diversity in offspring. They help ensure that the proper number of chromosomes is passed on to the next generation.

No, Parkinson's disease is not caused by a mutation on chromosome 6. The exact cause of Parkinson's disease is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Some rare forms of Parkinson's disease are linked to specific gene mutations, but these are not located on chromosome 6.

Killer whales have a total of 44 chromosomes, which consist of pairs of chromosomes inherited from each parent. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes, either XX for females or XY for males.

The technique for visualizing maize chromosomes was developed by Barbara McClintock, an American geneticist who conducted groundbreaking research on maize genetics in the early to mid-20th century. Her work led to the discovery of transposable elements or "jumping genes" in maize chromosomes, for which she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1983.

Seals typically have a diploid number of 34 chromosomes. This means they have 17 pairs of chromosomes in their cells.

^Incorrect.

I assume you're talking about humans, in which case a healthy child will have 46 chromosomes. There are 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and the 2 sex ones (XX or XY).

I believe that they use something called karyotyping. The scientist will basically get some tissue samples from your body and let it grow in their lab. Then another will take this sample and look under a microscope to examine the shape, size and will count the amount of chromosomes that are present in the cells. They will then proceed and take a picture of the chromosomes.

Genes on the Y chromosome are responsible for male sex determination and other male-specific traits. They play a crucial role in the development of male reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics.
