Detailed explanation-1: -So, the haploid chromosome number will be= 10/2= 5. The number of possible chromosome pairs is given by= 2n, where n is the haploid chromosome number. So, the number of chromosome pairs for having a diploid chromosome number of 10 will be= 25. So, the correct answer is ‘25’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Explanation: If the egg cell has 10 chromosomes (haploid ‘n’), then the number of chromosomes present in diploid cell (2n) is 20.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: If an organism has a diploid number of 10 it has 10 chromosomes-5 homologous pairs. It will therefore 20 chromatids, all of which will be present in prophase.
Detailed explanation-4: -During meiosis, a diploid germ cell divides to give rise to four haploid cells in two rounds of cell division.
Detailed explanation-5: -A diploid cell contains 10 chromosomes (2n = 10).
