It’s cool that you found that! You can try identifying it by its luster, color, breakage, etc, Try getting a piece of paper or something, scrap it on the paper, and see what it leaves behind. That’s a way many scientists identify rocks/crystals. You can also google types of rocks and see if you find a match. You always need to look at its color, as the color is the most distinctive feature of a rock. If you’ve since all of these things and your very serious about it, you can try calling somewhere or someone who would know (like a scientist who studies rocks).

Chromosomes only exist inside gametes true or false
netineya [11]

The male human has a sperm cell and the female has an egg cell. The cells from the male and female that combine to form a zygote are called gametes. The human sperm and egg cells each contain 23 chromosomes. . A combination of gametes forms a zygote with 46 chromosomes. The type of cell division that produces gametes with half the normal chromosome number is the meiosis. Meiosis is the type of cell division used in sexual reproduction. It will occur in the testes and ovaries.<span>Chromosomes get shuffled when eggs and sperm are made. Though most adult cells contain two sets of chromosomes, sperm and egg cells are different. These special cells have just one chromosome from each pair. Which chromosome they get from each pair is random, making each sperm or egg cell unique. There is also a bit of mixing before the chromosomes are sorted into individual sperm or egg cells. Chromosomes from each pair in a mother or father, respectively, make contact and exchange pieces of DNA, creating hybrid chromosomes. </span>
