What is the 2n chromosome number for a normal human karyotype?

The answer is 46.

A karyotype is a term used to describe the complete set of chromosomes in an organism.
Humans are diploid(2n) organisms. We carry two complete sets of chromosomes, one was inherited from the father( 23 chromosomes) and the other set of 23 chromosomes is from the mother.
From these 23 chromosomes, 22 are autosomes(not a sex chromossome)+ 1 is a allosome(sex chromossome).

n=23
2n = 46.

The diploid number (2n) varies between species. To find your diploid number, we can just count how many chromossomes are in the karyotype.

Select the endocrine organ from the drop-down menu that matches with its hormone.
Papessa [141]

Answer: The options were missing, but the endocrine organs that secret each gland are:  

Pituitary gland: Thyroid-stimulating hormone

Pituitary gland: Adrenocorticotropic

Hypothalamus: Gonadotropic

Pituitary gland: Prolactin

Pituitary gland: Growth hormone

Thyroid gland: Thyroxine

Thyroid gland: Calcitonin

Thyroid gland: Triiodothyronine

Hypothalamus: Antidiuretic

Hypothalamus: Oxytocin

Adrenal gland: Glucocorticoids

Adrenal gland: Mineralocorticoids

Adrenal gland: Epinephrine

Pineal gland: Melatonin

Thymus gland: Thymosins

Pancreas: Insulin

Pancreas: Glucagon

Explanation:

  • The pituitary gland, also known as the hypophysis, produces the thyroid-stimulating hormone, the adrenocorticotropic, prolactin, and growth hormone. The hypophysis has two parts, the anterior one and the posterior one. The anterior one secretes these hormones thanks to the action of hormones that comes from the hypothalamus.
  • The hypothalamus, which is a gland that is in the brain, produces:

gonadotropic, antidiuretic, and oxytocin. Once produced, they are stored and secreted by hypophysis. In this case, these hormones are in the other portion of the hypophysis, the posterior part. The hormones act in the reproductive system.

  • The thyroid gland, which is in the neck, produce and secretes:

thyroxine, calcitonin, and triiodothyronine. The calcitonin controls calcium concentration, while the thyroxine and triiodothyronine impact the cells' metabolism.

  • The adrenal gland is above the kidneys. It secretes Glucocorticoids, Epinephrine, and Mineralocorticoids. The mineralocorticoids regulate the concentrations of water and salt in our body; glucocorticoids have many functions, one is fighting inflammation; lastly, epinephrine, also known as adrenaline, is released in a fight or flight reaction.
  • The pancreas is an organ and a gland. As a gland, it secretes glucagon and insulin to regulate the concentration of glucose in the blood.
  • The pineal gland is on the brain. This gland secretes melatonin, which is a hormone that helps us to sleep.
  • The thymus gland is in the chest, and it produces a hormone called thymosin. This hormone helps in the production of leucocytes, which the thymus produces.
