Frogs have 26 chromosomes in their somatic cells. A frog's sperm would be a haploid cell, meaning that the cell contains half the amount of chromosomes that it's somatic cells have. So a frog's sperm cell would contain 13 chromosomes.
A chicken's gametes (sperm and egg) each contain 39 chromosomes, which is half of the chicken's total chromosomes (78). When fertilization occurs, the resulting zygote will have the full complement of 78 chromosomes.
23. A gamete contains exactly half the genetic material (and chromosomes) of a normal cell. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes in their genome in normal cells. A gamete has 23 (not paired) chromosomes.
Meiosis is the process by which gametes (sperm and egg cells) are produced, halving the number of chromosomes. Fertilization is the fusion of a sperm cell with an egg cell to form a zygote with a complete set of chromosomes. Together, meiosis and fertilization ensure genetic diversity in offspring by creating new combinations of genes.
Somatic (diploid) cells have pairs of chromosomes. They have 46 chromosomes, making 23 pairs. All the cells in the human body are diploid cells, with the exception of the gametes (sperm and ova).Gametes are sex cells (eggs and sperm), they only have 23 chromosomes total. This is because they will combine with another gamete to form an embryo that will have 46.
There are 26 chromosomes in the somatic cells of the Leopard Frog.
Frogs typically have around 26 chromosomes in their cells, although the number can vary between different species of frogs.
Haploid gametes have half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell, so in humans, there are 23 chromosomes in a haploid gamete.
The llama has 74 chromosomes.
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes - therefore if the diploid number is 22, the gametes would have 11 chromosomes.
In human gametes, chromosomes are not paired. Instead, each gamete has one set of 23 chromosomes, and is said to be haploid.
Each gamete has only 23 chromosomes
Humans have 23 chromosomes in their gametes, which are sperm and egg cells. This is half the number of chromosomes found in a somatic cell, which has 46 chromosomes.

Leopard frogs have 13 pairs of homologous chromosomes, for a total of 26 chromosomes.
Sperm cells, or gametes normally have 23 chromosomes each.
If a somatic cell has 30 chromosomes, then the gametes produced by that cell would contain 15 chromosomes. Gametes, like sperm and egg cells, are haploid cells containing half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells, which are diploid.
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
