What else can I help you with?
The diploid body cells of a frog contains 26 chromosomes If these cells undergo mitosis how many chromosomes will be in each new cell?
There are 26 chromosomes in the somatic cells of the Leopard Frog.
What parts of your body does meiosis occur?
it occurs in the gametes, the sex cells. where mitosis occurs in all other cells that have two halves of chromosomes, meiosis occurs in cells which only have one half of the chromosomes.
If a squirrel normally has 40 pairs of chromosomes in its cells after mitosis occurs how many pairs of chromosomes would be in each of the squirrels body cells?
After mitosis occurs, the number of pairs of chromosomes in each of the squirrel's body cells would remain the same as before, which is 40 pairs of chromosomes. Mitosis is a type of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
How many body cell chromosome number in a guinea pig?
Guinea pigs have 64 chromosomes in body cells and 32 chromosomes in sex cells.
When sex cells combine to produce offspring each sex cell will contribute what?
Each sex cell will contribute half of the genetic material needed to produce offspring. The egg from the female will contribute one set of chromosomes, while the sperm from the male will contribute the other set. These combined chromosomes will determine the genetic traits of the offspring.
How do the number of chromosomes in a female scorpion's egg cells compare with the number in her body (somatic) cells?
There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.
Chromosome arrangement for body cells of female?
chromosomes arragement in body cell of females
What sex chromosomes are contained in a female body cell?
Female cells contain the sex chromosomes XX. A female gamete (ovum/egg) contains one X chromosome.
Human body cells have 23 pairs of?
Chromosomes (autosomes), not including the sex chromosomes (XY - male, or XX - female).
How are body cells different from sex cells?
Cause body cells have twice the chromosomes a sex cell has Body cells have 46 chromosomes and sex cells have 23 chromosomes.
How does the number of chromosomes in gametes of an organism that reproduces sexually differ from the numbers of chromosomes in other cells?
Unlike somatic (body) cells, gametes have two time the number of chromosomes as body cells. Gametes (2n). Body cells (n). For example, human 46 chromosomes in gamete cells but half of that (23) in body cells.
Why do female and male sex cells have fewer chromosomes than the body cells?
The Y chromosome is found in males only. Females have XX chromosomes whereas males have XY chromosomes. That is why they are different, because an XY cannot be female and an XX cannot be male.
What kind of chromosomes do the body cells of humans have?
All Human Body Cells, also called somatic cells, have 46 chromosomes. These 46 occur is 23 pair. The first 22 pair are called autosomes. The 23rd pair are the sex chromosomes, xx for female, xy for male.
How many chromosomes are there in a grasshoppers body cells?
I don't know man, I'm looking for the same response myself.
How do body cells and sex cells differ?
Human cells have 46 chromosomes (call that 2n, or 2 times n). Now then, if an egg cell + sperm cell = fertilized egg (which becomes a human), how many chromosomes do each have? An egg cell must have 23 chromosomes, and a sperm cell must have 23 chromosomes, because 23 + 23 = 46. When the egg (23) and sperm (23) combine to form a fertilized egg, this egg will now have 46 chromosomes. So human sex cells have n, or 23 chromosomes. If you mean to distinguish somatic chromosomes from sex chromosomes, then you have 22 pairs of somatic chromosomes plus one pair of sex chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
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.
What did Sutton observe about the relative numbers of chromosomes in the body cells and sex cells of grasshoppers?
Sutton observed that while body cells in grasshoppers had a diploid number of chromosomes, sex cells (sperm and eggs) had a haploid number of chromosomes. This observation led to the hypothesis that chromosomes are responsible for passing on hereditary information from one generation to the next.
