What two structures of a frog would most likely have the same chromosome number?
the answer to this question is skin cell and fertilized egg cell because these two have 46 chromosomes. the answer to this question is skin cell and fertilized egg cell because these two have 46 chromosomes.
Are all calico guinea pigs female?
The majority of calico guinea pigs are female, any male guinea pig who is calico is a mutation. I'm not sure how well I can explain this, but basically there are color alleles (not sure if I spelled that right) on the X chromosome, so its a sex-linked trait. Because females have an extra X chromosome, One X chromosome needs to be shut down in every cell. If its not, it can cause serious problems, so the female body has safety mechanisms in place to assure its shut down and converted into a Bar-Body. Males only have one X and one Y chromosome, so they have the correct chromosome # and nothing needs to be shut down. So, back to the color allele on the X chromosome, Males receive 1 of those and Females receive 2. Now, If an organism, such as a human has the wrong chromosome # It can cause killer things like Cri du chats, or something less harmful like down syndrome. Its not as serious with the sex chromosomes (ahh! Sorry about all of this back round info, its kinda hard to understand without knowing other stuff first) So, Lets say that one X chromosome contains the orange coat allele, and the other contains the black coat allele. There is a different allele on a different chromosome that provides base coat, lets say the phenotype is white. As the embryo is developing at random points the X chromosome is shut off. The X cells are shut off randomly, but in patches depending how far along development is. The sooner the X chromosome is shut off, the larger the patch will be. So if x chromosomes are shut off earlier, the guinea pig has smaller patches because the already shutoff cell don't replicate as much. The exact same things occurs in females of all species. Hopefully that's clear enough! Males shouldn't be calico because they only have one X chromosome, and the Y chromosome mostly contains stuff like "how to be male" Sorry that this is so long! I hope its clear enough for you!
How many chromosome pairs do horses have in their somatic cells?
The diploid number of chromosomes in a horse's cell is 64, therefore they have 32 pairs of chromosomes in their somatic cells.
How many chromosomes are in a egg cell of a sheep?
it all depends on the zygote which has not been able to find out the total chromosome's in the zygote.
The Number of chromosome in Gorilla is?
Gorilla as well as Chimpanzee posses total 48 chromosomes in each cell
What is the diploid chromosome number for a body cell from a human?
23
How Compared to a body cell a gamete contains?
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes as a body cell because they are haploid, while body cells are diploid. This reduction in chromosome number ensures that when a sperm and egg combine during fertilization, the resulting offspring will have the correct diploid chromosome number.
How many chromosomes are there in body cell of spinach?
Spinach has a diploid chromosome number of 12, meaning that there are 12 chromosomes in each body cell.
The number of chromosomes in a sex cell of an organism is what kind of chromosome?
A sex cell is haploid, having one set of chromosomes, which is half of the number of chromosomes as in a body cell.
What is the chromosome number in the daughter cell?
The chromosome number for daughter cells resulting from mitosis is the same as the parent cell.
How is the chromosome number affected by cell division?
During cell division, the chromosome number remains constant. In mitosis, each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes to the parent cell. In meiosis, the chromosome number is halved to produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
What is a haploid female sex cell?
A haploid female sex cell is an egg cell, also known as an ovum. It contains half the number of chromosomes found in a normal body cell and is produced through the process of meiosis in the ovaries. Upon fertilization by a sperm cell, the egg cell's haploid chromosome number combines with the sperm cell's haploid chromosome number to form a diploid zygote.
A somatic cell having two of each type of chromosome has chromosome number?
A somatic cell with two of each type of chromosome has a diploid chromosome number. This means that the cell has a complete set of chromosomes, one from each parent.
What chromosome are found in body cell but not sex cell?
Homologous Chromosomes
A cell with one of each kind of chromosome is what?
If you mean haploid, as in half of each chromosome, or containing only one chromatid from each full chromosome, thenthe cell is called haploid.
How is the chromosome number halved during cell division: mitosis or meiosis?
The chromosome number is halved during cell division in meiosis, not mitosis.
How is the chromosome number halved during which specific process in the cell cycle?
The chromosome number is halved during the process of meiosis in the cell cycle.
