Compared to the amount of genetic information

Biology
1 answer:
miskamm [114]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

c. One half as much.

Explanation:

The amount of genetic information contained in a normal human sperm cell (23 chromosomes) is one-half as much the information contained in a normal human body cell (46 chromosomes). Sperm cells are produced during meiosis, a specialized division process that <u>reduces the number of chromosomes in half</u>, generating haploid daughter cells.

What kind of cell results when a diploid and a haploid gamete fuse during fertilization?
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is: a triploid cell.

Explanation:

A triploid cell is the result of the fertilization of a diploid cell and a haploid cell. Triploid cells have 3 sets of chromosomes, diploids have 2 sets, and haploids have only 1 set.

Humans, besides many other species, have diploid cells - one set of chromosomes comes from the mother and the other set of chromosomes comes from the father. <u>In order to maintain this number, </u><u>gametes</u><u> (the sex cells: spermatozoids and oocytes) become haploid through meiosis</u>. This way, when the spermatozoid fertilizes the oocyte, the resulting cell will be diploid.

A gamete being diploid is a result of an <u>error during meiosis</u>, and will most likely generate a triploid cell during fertilization.

A triploid cell, unfortunately, <u>won't be able to survive,</u> so they are almost always spontaneously aborted in the first two weeks of pregnancy.
