I have two questions and not sure about the answers

 

 

Give the number of chromosomes in the matured spermatozoa?

 

I want to say the answer is 46 chomosomes

 

 

 

In human, give the number of chomosomes in the spermatogonium?

 

Not to sure about this one

 

 

Can anyone help me please!!!!

 

THANKS:confused:

If a mature spermatozoa, aka sperm, and a mature egg had 46 chromosomes each, when they fused into a complete human embryo, it would have 92 chromosomes. Does that sound right?

 

A spermatogonium is a stem cell that gives rise to sperm through meiosis. So, how many chromosomes would a cell have, if after meiosis, one of its daughter cells had as many chromosomes as a mature spermatozoa?

Paralith.

You gotta be a teacher. No-one else uses that Socratic method. Answering a question with another question is being mean.

 

Short answer : 23 and 46.

 

So there!

 

And the ultimate answer is 42.

No, not a teacher - not yet, anyways. I just don't like doing people's homework for them, so I thought that was the best way to get science45 to think about it him/herself.

The cool thing about your style is that you've helped others (like me!) learn new things, too. I am also referring here to the other thread in which you've assisted this evening regarding protiens and amino acids. I find a strange excitement in being a learning voyeur.
