The normal body cell of an organism contains 28 pairs of chromosomes- The number of chromosomes present in its germ cell will be-28145642

Toppr Admin · Accepted Answer

Option -A- 28 is correct-Normal body cells means all cells of body than germ cells-all body cells are diploid they carry chromosomes in pair- 28 pairs means 56 chromosomes-while germ cells are Haploid and they carry half chromosomes of normal body cells- half of 56 is 28-so-option -A- is correct-

The normal body cell of an organism contains $28$ pairs of chromosomes. The number of chromosomes present in its germ cell will be?
$28$
$14$
$56$
$42$

Option (A) 28 is correct.
Normal body cells means all cells of body than germ cells.all body cells are diploid they carry chromosomes in pair. 28 pairs means 56 chromosomes.
while germ cells are Haploid and they carry half chromosomes of normal body cells. half of 56 is 28.
so.option (A) is correct.
