How many chromosones are in gamete?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

The number of chromasones differ for the larger groupings of living things, however in the higher life forms (those that have gametes) the number of chromosomes will always be half of the diploid form.

In humans it is usually 26 (13 pairs)

Answer 3

There are half as many chromosomes in gametes as in somatic or body cells. Since humans have 46 chromosomes in their body cells, male gametes have half as many, or 23 chromosomes. (Assuming you're asking about male humans)

Answer 4

A gamete only has half of the total genes a normal cell has. Since the total number of normal cells have are 46, there are 23 chromosomes in a gamete. That is the case because for example, for reproduction, the sperm goes into the egg, completing the number of chromosomes. This allows variation in genes for the offspring.

Answer 5

Gametes contain half the number of chromosomes found in a normal body cell, which is known as a haploid number. In humans, gametes have 23 chromosomes - 22 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome. When a sperm fertilizes an egg, the resulting zygote will have the full complement of chromosomes (46 in humans).

Answer 6

Gametes are haploid cells which means they have half the number of chromosomes which is 22 chromosomes.

Answer 7

23

Answer 8

23.
