Question

2. An organism has 15 chromosomes in its sperm cell. How many chromosomes will be in that organism's skin cell?

Answer 1

The organism will have 30 chromosomes in its skin cell. This is because skin cells are diploid, meaning they have two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent. Since the sperm cell has 15 chromosomes, the skin cell will have 30 chromosomes in total.
