gametes -Correct Answer ✔sex cells (sperm and egg), humans have 23 chromosomes
in each sex cell (made of 22 autosomes), 1n, haploid because they have half as many
as regular human cells. In a regular cell (not sex cell) there is a total of 46
chromosomes in each cell or a set of 23.

regular cells -Correct Answer ✔2n, or diploid a set of 23 chromosomes or 46
chromosomes

sexual reproduction simplified -Correct Answer ✔a sperm which is haploid (n) with 23
chromosomes combines with an egg which is also haploid (n) with 23 chromosomes to
form a zygote (2n) which creates 46 chromosomes or diploid then it forms an embryo
which turns into a fetus.

autosomes -Correct Answer ✔In a diploid or 2n human cell there are 46 chromosomes.
2 sex cells (one from mom, one from dad) join with 44 autosomes (23 from mom 23
from dad). Mom and dad have identical cells called autosomes. *These are essentially
chromosomes that both mom and dad posess that are not determinants of the zygotes
gender (the sex cells do this).
Mom has 22 autosomes, and dad has 22 that each will donate.
In addition to the 22 chromsomes that mom and dad will both donate, 1 more
chromosome has to be added to make 23 chromosomes in total This is the sex
chromsome which determines the sex of the baby. These sex cells are not identical like
autosomes because there is either an X chromsome or a Y chromsome that can be
donated. Mom can donate only an X chromosome. Dad can donate either an X or a Y
chromosome.

sporophytes and how they reproduce simplified -Correct Answer ✔sporophyte is just
another name for a plant. some sporophytes produce oversized ovaries which presents
itself as a fruit. There is a remains of a flower on one end of it. If you cut into the ovary
there are fertilized ovules or seeds. Inside of the seed is an embryo or fertilized egg.
When we plant a seed we should be able to grow a sporophyte through mitosis. Many
sporophytes produce a flower which is diploid (2n). Through meiosis sporophytes (2n)
produce spores which are haploid (n). One cell in the sporangia undergoes meiosis. At
the end we get 4 haploid cells or two diploid cells. A bunch of haploid cells create a

gametophyte. Some of these gametophytes differentiate into gametes. When a grain of
pollen reaches the entrance of an ovary, it releases the sperm that fertilizes the egg and
creates a zygote or egg. The zygote/egg develops by mitosis into an embyro within an
ovule/seed which is inside of an ovary that starts the process all over again.
