Chromosomes

No. Just number of chromosomes cannot indicate whether the organism is a plant or an animal.

Crossing over

If an individual has the chromosome series XY, that individual would be a male. The Y chromosome is passed down from the father and the X is passed from the mother. The X chromosome contains all hereditary factors while the Y chromosome doesn't contain much genetical information at all, except the fact if Y chromosome is present that individual will be a male. This is all only true for Humans. Dosophilla (fruit flies) have different chromosomal expressions.

The answer is Spindle Fibers.

Traits controlled by non-sex genes on the sex chromosomes (primarily the X chromosome) include various genetic disorders and traits such as color blindness, hemophilia, and certain types of muscular dystrophy. These traits can be inherited regardless of the sex of the individual, as they are linked to genes located on the X chromosome. Since males have only one X chromosome, they are more likely to express these traits when they inherit a recessive allele, while females may be carriers if they have one normal and one affected allele.

During the Prophase stage of Meiosis, rather than Mitosis, chromosomes are split from 46 to 23. Meiosis is the same basic process as Mitosis, yet is what occurs in gametes rather than other non-gamete cells.

Channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) have a total of 56 chromosomes. This includes 28 pairs of homologous chromosomes, characteristic of their diploid genetic makeup. These chromosomes play a crucial role in the fish's growth, development, and reproduction.

In human cells, during prophase of mitosis, there are 46 chromosomes, which consist of 23 pairs. Each chromosome is duplicated and appears as two sister chromatids joined at the centromere. Therefore, while there are 46 individual chromosomes, they are organized as 92 chromatids.
