Do chromosomes contain mitochondria that determine which trait an organism will have?
No.In some cells, mitochondria contain small chromosomes. Mitochondria have circular DNA molecules.Not advanced as chromosomes
How many chromosomes will an organism have in its body cells if the gametes contain 25 chromesones?
Mostly likely 50. Most organisms are diploid (2n), gametes are haploid (1n). If there are 25 chromosomes in the gamete, 25x2 = 50.
How would the karyotype of an organism that reproduces asexualy differ from a human karyotype?
Characteristics. Also, another difference between karyotype and karyogram is that while karyotype describes the number and appearance of chromosomes and includes their length, banding pattern, and centromere position, karyogram contains chromosomes arranged in an appropriate order.Jul
Organism whose cells always or usually contain a nucleus are called what?
An organisms cell that contain nuclei is known as a eukaryote. Prokaryotes do not have a nuclei instead their DNA is free floating in the cytoplasmic matrix. Bacteria have a circular DNA whereas human DNA is organized into chromosomes.
How many chromosomes are there in each somatic cell?
That depends on the organism you're looking at. In humans, there are 46 chromosomes per normal somatic cell. 46 chromosomes = 22 homolog pairs + 2 sex chromosomes (XX in women or XY in men)
Briefly state what chromosomes contain and what they determine in organisms?
Chromosomes contain links of amino acids and other chemicals. They determine everything about organisms, Chromosomes contain DNA, which is the blue print of any organism
Are organisms with 3 or more sets of chromosomes known as haploid organisms?
No - haploid cells contain half the normal amount of chromosomes.Polyploid is the term used for a cell/organism with more than 2 sets of chromosomes.
Do chromosomes contain mitochondria that determine which trait an organism will have?
No.In some cells, mitochondria contain small chromosomes. Mitochondria have circular DNA molecules.Not advanced as chromosomes
What do chromosomes have to do with genetics?
Chromosomes contain the genes of an organism which are what express traits and are passed on to offspring
How many chromosomes will an organism have in its body cells if the gametes contain 25 chromesones?
Mostly likely 50. Most organisms are diploid (2n), gametes are haploid (1n). If there are 25 chromosomes in the gamete, 25x2 = 50.
Does Y chromosomes contain genes that are critical for an organism's survival?
yes

Organism whose cells always or usually contain a nucleus are called what?
An organisms cell that contain nuclei is known as a eukaryote. Prokaryotes do not have a nuclei instead their DNA is free floating in the cytoplasmic matrix. Bacteria have a circular DNA whereas human DNA is organized into chromosomes.
How many chromosomes do they contain?
Bacteria contain one circular chromosome (and several tiny circular plasmids), some slime molds contain hundreds of thousands of linear chromosomes. Other organisms contain various numbers of chromosomes depending on the species.
Do more-complex organisms always have more chromosomes than simpler organisms do.?
Chromosomes contain the genes or the DNA of all organisms. Being more complex, does not mean that you have more chromosomes, for example: a human being has 48 chromosomes while chickens and dogs both have 78.
How would the karyotype of an organism that asexually differ from a human karyotype?
The karyotype of the asexual organism would not contain homologous chromosomes
How do you plant cells divide DNA if they don't have chromosomes?
Plants are higher level eukaryotic organisms and therefore contain chromosomes.
