What is the number of sex chromosomes in
male honey bees?
We know that the chromosome set of males
in honey bees is 1n and the chromosome set
of female honeys is 2n, and based on this,
the number of autosomal chromosomes in
male honeybees is 16 chromosomes, and the
number of autosomal chromosomes in female
honey is 32 chromosomes, but if The male
was haploid (1n) Will this make the number
of autosomes equal to the number of sex
chromosomes? Please clarify the answer
Which pair number represents the sex chromosomes?
What are the number of chromosomes in mustard weed?

- A diploid organism produces four gametes from one parent cell through the process of meiosis. Two gametes are found to have 7 chromosomes and two gametes are found to have 5 chromosomes. A) Is this the expected number of chromosomes that would be found in each gamete following a normal cycle of meiosis? If yes, explain why. If no, explain why not and describe how the gamete situation described above occurred. B) Determine the number of homologous chromosome pairs that the original parent cell contained, before meiosis began. Explain how you determined this value.arrow_forwardWhy are the homologous regions of the X and Y chromosome important during meiosis?arrow_forwardA specific human individual with a male sex has the same sex chromosome complement as a metafemale Drosophila fly. Both individuals have a diploid set of autosomes.i) What is the sex chromosome complement of these two individuals? ii) If these individuals were produced from a fertilization event involving an abnormal egg and abnormal sperm cell, provide the genetic make-up of the two gametes?
