In normal humans, sex cells contain the _________ number of chromosomes.
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: Haploid number

In normal humans, sex cells contain the diploid number of chromosomes

Explanation;

Human somatic cells or body cells are diploid such that they contain two sets of 23 chromosomes which gives a total of 23 chromosomes. Examples of somatic cells in the body that are diploid include, epithelial cells, somatic cells, liver cells, blood cells, nerve cells, etc.

However, mature sex cells are haploid, which means they have one set of 23 chromosomes which means they have 23 chromosomes. Sex cells are the results of meiosis type of cell division in which a diploid cell divides to form four daughter cells that are haploid.

How does using killed or weakened bacteria in an immunization help the body prevent infections
snow_lady [41]
<span>Basically, the body needs to know what it is defending against. Your body can still (usually) fight off infection, even without an immunization, but it takes longer. Basically, your body creates cells with a receptor for a specific disease. When this cell finds the disease it is programmed for, it will send out signals to the "killer" cells to come and kill it. If your body doesn't have the "seeker" cells, it can't fight off the infection until it does. The opposite end are autoimmune diseases, where your immune system starts attacking itself.
