Answer:
78 chromosomes can be expected in the skin cell
Step-by-step explanation:
The sex cells i.e sperm and ova cells are haploid in dogs. Being haploid means, the number of chromosomes is "n".
While a skin cell in dogs in diploid which means that the number of chromosomes is equal to twice the chromosomes in haploid cells i.e "2n"
Hence, if the total number of chromosomes in haploid sex cell is "n" or "39"
Then the number of chromosomes in diploid skin cell is equal to "2n"
or
