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.
What else can I help you with?
If a diploid cell containing 28 chromosomes undergoes meiosis how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have?
Each daughter cell produced by meiosis will have half the number of chromosomes as the original diploid cell. So, if a diploid cell contains 28 chromosomes, each daughter cell will have 14 chromosomes after meiosis.
How many chromosomes in one cell?
Humans typically have 46 chromosomes in each cell, with 23 pairs.
How many chromosomes are in each cell after mitosis?
Mitosis produces two cells that have the same number of chromosomes as the original (parent) cell. For example, a human cell has 46 chromosomes - so after mitosis each cell will have 46 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes will each daughter cell have?
It depends on the type of cell division. In mitosis, 2 daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell are created. In a human, this would be 46 chromosomes. In meiosis, 4 daughter cell with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell are created. In a human, this would be 23 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes will be found in each daughter cell after mitosis?
46 chromosomes will be found in a human daughter cell after mitosis, 23 chromosomes will be found after meiosis.
What is the total number of paired chromosomes in a body cell called?
The total number of paired chromosomes in a body cell is called the diploid number. In humans, the diploid number is 46, with 23 pairs of chromosomes.
What is the total number of paired chromosomes in the body cell called?
The total number of paired chromosomes in a body cell is called the diploid number. This means that each chromosome has a partner, with one from the mother and one from the father, making up the full set of genetic material in a cell.
What are paired chromosomes that determine an individual's gender?
The paired chromosomes that determine an individual's gender are called sex chromosomes.
What are all paired chromosomes that are similar within an organism called, including autosomes?
The paired chromosomes that are similar within an organism, including autosomes, are called homologous chromosomes.
What is the total number of paired chromosomes in a body cell?
46
What are paired chromosomes called that have genes from the same traits?
homolegous chromosomes
What are paired up chromosomes called?
duplicated
What two types of paired cell structures are copied?
Chromosomes and centromeres.
When do copied chromosomes divide?
The paired chromosomes separate at the kinetochores and move to opposite sides of the cell during anaphase.
Are the sex chromosomes paired in the cell?
yes,in the somatic cells.But not in the reproductive cells
Paired chromosomes are said to be what?
Except for the sex chromosomes paired chromosomes are homologs.
What are the chromosomes that are paired one from each parent called?
The chromosomes that are paired, one from each parent, are called homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes carry genes for the same traits and are similar in size and shape. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material through crossing over.
