Explanation:

Genes are related to traits because they are handed down from past generations of both x & xy chromosomes. for example, the offspring that has the mother with blue eyes & the father with brown eyes.. since brown eyes is a dominant trait, the likelyhood of their offspring having brown eyes is higher. it's also in the DNA If both parents have the dominant trait of brown eyes, even tho 1 parent has the recessive trait of blue eyes..

If an adult dog has 78 chromosomes the number of chromosomes in a dogs sperm cell will be
Sergio039 [100]

39

Reproductive cells are haploid (have 1/2 the chromosomes), whereas somatic/body cells are diploid (have the full set of chromosomes)

This makes sense if you think about it. Using the example from the question, every dog has 78 chromosomes. This includes two of each (there are two chromosome 1's, two chromosome 2's, etc. This is visible in the karyotype attached). One set of these chromosomes were inherited from the mother, and one set from the father. Each parent contributed 39 chromosomes (one chromosome 1, one chromosome 2, etc.). If the dog in the question were to have 78 chromosomes in its sperm cells, it would contribute two sets to its offspring. When combined with the chromosomes in the egg cell, the offspring would end up with extra chromosomes. Therefore, both the sperm and the egg cells will have 39 chromosomes, one of each. When combined, they will produce offspring with 78 chromosomes, the proper number.
