Question

Biologists refer to the number of chromosomes with an "#n". For example, 1n for one copy of chromosomes and 2n for two copies. How else can this be expressed?

Answer 1

Answer:

haploid/diploid

Explanation:

The number of chromosomes can also be expressed as haploid or diploid, instead of 1n for one copy and 2n for two copies.

The haploid number of chromosomes also refers to a copy of the chromosomes or half of the genome of organisms while the diploid number of chromosomes refers to the double or complete set of chromosomes in the genome of organisms.

So, in other words: n = haploid and 2n - diploid.
