Question

If an organism has a haploid chromosome number of 7, how many chromosomes would be present in a monoploid individual of that species?

A) 7 chromosomes
B) 14 chromosomes
C) 21 chromosomes
D) 28 chromosomes

Answer 1

A monoploid individual of that species would have 7 chromosomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

A haploid chromosome number of 7 means that an organism has 7 chromosomes in its gametes.

A monoploid individual of that species would also have 7 chromosomes, as the haploid number is the same as the monoploid number. So the answer is:

A) 7 chromosomes
