A gamete is N (39 chromosomes in the cell) while a body cell is 2N (78 chromosomes; full set).
In a gamete (sex) cell, there are 23 chromosomes. A gamete is a haploid, or n, whereas a somatic (normal) cell is a diploid, or 2n, and has 46 chromosomes.
This indicated the difference between a haploid and a diploid, or rather if a cell has 1 or 2 sets of chromosomes. N = Haploid (A gamete or sex cell) 2N = Diploid (Somatic cell)
Meiosis produces haploid gametes which have the ' n ' symbol.
A zygote is the initial cell formed when two gamete cells (sperm and egg) fuse during fertilization. It contains a full set of chromosomes, with half inherited from each parent. The zygote is the first step in the development of a new organism.
the answer is N. Spores grow gametophytes that produce a haploid gamete through mitosis once fertilization occurs the product is a zygote that is 2n which will grow into a sporophyte that produces spores through meiosis.
I cell with 46 chromosome represented as 2n. When this cell divides (sex cell, gamete) it becomes a haploid with 23 chromosomes represented as n.
n * 2n = 2n2
I cell with 46 chromosome represented as 2n. When this cell divides (sex cell, gamete) it becomes a haploid with 23 chromosomes represented as n.
14-2n = 12
2n2 / n = 2n
7-2n=n-147-2n+2n=n-14+2n7=3n-147+14=3n21=3n21/3=3n/37=n
