Biology

Darya [45]3 years ago

Answer:

Almost all of your body’s cells divide by mitosis. Meiosis is used to produce only one type of cell, and those are the gametes. During meiosis, a diploid cell divides to produce four, non-identical haploid daughter cells, each containing a single set of chromosomes. In humans, these are sperm and egg cells.

How are cells with monosomy different from haploid cells
gladu [14]
Haploid refers to a cell that has has only one copy of each chromosome, like in a gamete such as a sperm cell or egg cell. Upon fertilization, the two haploids come together to form a full diploid cell (two copies of each chromosome) which then goes on to form the complete organism. Monosomy refers to a condition where there is only one copy of a specific chromosome. For example, in the human condition Turner Syndrome, there is only one X chromosome, instead of two sex chromosomes. Most incidences of monosomy other than Turner Syndrome are lethal, so there aren't many examples of it.
