A diploid organism has a total of 60 chromosomes. Assuming all possible chromosome combinations are viable, a mutant nullisomic version of this organism would have ______ chromosomes.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The formula is 2n - 2

Since n is 30

= 2(30) - 2

= 60 - 2

= 58

A mutant nullisomic version of this organism would have 58 chromosomes.

A diploid cell missing both copies of the same chromosome exhibits a nullisomic condition or a cell or individual with one chromosomal type missing. Humans having this condition will not live.
