Each gamete has half the number of chromosomes of the somatic cell. Hence, cats' gametes will have <u>19 chromosomes.</u> Option C.

<h3>What are the type of cells in the organism?</h3>

The types of cells in the organism are somatic and germ cells.

Both the somatic and germ cells go through mitosis producing two daughter cells with the<u> same </u><u>genetic dotation</u>.

Somatic cells are any cell in the body except sperm and egg cells. They are diploid, meaning they contain two chromosome sets, each one inherited from each parent.

Germ cells are diploid reproductive cells. They suffer mitosis to form more sexual cells, and a few suffer meiosis to produce haploid gametes. Each germ cell produces 4 haploid gametes.

Each gamete has half the number of chromosomes of the somatic cell. Hence, cats' gametes will have <u>19 chromosomes.</u> Option C.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

For the 1st block on the left I think there are 2 dominants for that would be BB. The 1st block on the right would be 1 dominant and 1 recessive and that would be Bb. The bottom on the left would be the same as the first block on the right. That would be Bb. The last block that would be the bottom right would be 2 recessives and that would be bb. I hope this might help.

Explanation:

When you are doing punnet squares, you have dominant and recessive traits. There are ways you can do that. If you have 2 alleles of each parent of that offspring, there will be a genotype and a phenotype that represents a genetic trait of each genotype. I hope this helps your question.
