The total number of chromosomes present in a germ cell is half the number of chromosomes present in a somatic cell. Hence, if the somatic cells of an organism has 6 chromosomes within the nucleus then it will have half of 6 chromosomes , that is 3 chromosomes in the germ cells.
An organism's somatic cells have 6 chromosomes within the nucleus. How many chromosomes are present in...

Cats have 38 chromosomes in their somatic cells and use the Lygaeus mode of sex determination. How many chromosomes does a cat receive from its father? How many autosomes are present in a cat gamete? How many sex chromosomes are there in a cat sperm? d. How many autosomes are there in a somatic cell of a female cat? e. If a diploid cell contains 12 chromosomes, how many potentially genetically distinct gametes can be formed?
Cats are diploid organisms that have 38 chromosomes in their somatic cells during G1 phase. Based on this information, answer the following questions about the cell cycle of a cat's somatic cell: a) How many DNA double helix molecules are present in a somatic cell of a cat during G1 phase? Explain your answer. b) How many total DNA double helix molecules are present in a somatic cell of a cat during G2 phase? Explain your answer. c) Describe what...
