Dog gametes contain 33 chromosomes. What is the genetic content of a dog body cell?

Biology

Answer:

If a dog's gametes have 33 chromosomes, the somatic or body cells have a genetic content of 66 chromosomes.

Explanation:

Gametes are the sex cells of sexually-reproducing organisms, with the characteristic of being haploid, that is, their<u> genetic content is reduced by half</u>. Unlike gametes, somatic or <u>body cells</u><u> contain the complete charge of chromosomes</u>, so they are called diploids.

If the genetic content of a dog's gamete is 33 chromosomes, its body cells must have twice as many, which means 66 chromosomes.

<em>     </em><em><u>An additional note</u></em><em>: a dog really has 78 chromosomes, so its gametes have 39 chromosomes. </em>
