Question
Chapter 2.3, Problem 37AQP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The number of chromosomes in a mule, which is produced by a cross between a horse having 64 chromosomes and a donkey having 62 chromosomes. Also describe the reasons for the fact that most mules are sterile.
Introduction:
Chromosomes are the threadlike structure present in the nucleus of the cells of an organism. A Chromosome carries the genetic material and a packaging protein. They have an X-shaped structure and the two arms of chromosomes called as sister chromatids joined at the region called the centromere. Horses have 64 numbers of chromosomes and a donkey has 62 numbers of chromosomes.
