The Jimsonweed, Datura stramonium, is a plant that produces gametes in order for sexual reproduction to occur. All sexually reproducing organisms undergo meiosis to produce gametes. Likewise, an egg cell (female gamete) will be produced by the Jimsonweed plant via meiosis. Meiosis is a kind of cell division that results in daughter cells with each having their chromosomal number reduced by half.
If the body cells of the Jimsonweed contain 12 chromosomes each, the gametes (egg cell) produced by meiotic division will have 6 number of chromosomes. This reduction in the chromosome number of gametes is important in order to maintain the correct chromosomal number of the offsprings. For example, a diploid organism (2n) undergoes meiosis to produce haploid gametes (n), which will unite with another (n) gamete to produce the 2n offspring.
6 chromosomes. This is because gametes are usually characterised as to having only half the number of chromosomes of the somatic cells. This is done through meiotic division.

In this situation, you should direct your partner to manually stabilize the women's head, while you quickly visualize her chest to search for signs of breathing. I hope that this helps you!
