  2. List of organisms by chromosome count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_organisms_by...

    The list of organisms by chromosome count describes ploidy or numbers of chromosomes in the cells of various plants, animals, protists, and other living organisms.This number, along with the visual appearance of the chromosome, is known as the karyotype, [1] [2] [3] and can be found by looking at the chromosomes through a microscope.

  3. Ploidy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ploidy

    The number of chromosomes found in a single complete set of chromosomes is called the monoploid number (x). The haploid number (n) refers to the total number of chromosomes found in a gamete (a sperm or egg cell produced by meiosis in preparation for sexual reproduction). Under normal conditions, the haploid number is exactly half the total ...

  4. Polyploidy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyploidy

    Polyploidy is a condition in which the cells of an organism have more than two paired sets of chromosomes. Most species whose cells have nuclei ( eukaryotes ) are diploid , meaning they have two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each of two parents; each set contains the same number of chromosomes, and the chromosomes are joined in pairs ...

  5. Chromosome (evolutionary algorithm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_(evolutionary...

    A chromosome now consists of genes as data objects of the gene types, whereby, depending on the application, each gene type occurs exactly once as a gene or can be contained in the chromosome any number of times. The latter leads to chromosomes of dynamic length, as they are required for some problems.

  6. PL/SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PL/SQL

    PL/SQL refers to a class as an "Abstract Data Type" (ADT) or "User Defined Type" (UDT), and defines it as an Oracle SQL data-type as opposed to a PL/SQL user-defined type, allowing its use in both the Oracle SQL Engine and the Oracle PL/SQL engine. The constructor and methods of an Abstract Data Type are written in PL/SQL.

  7. Test oracle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_Oracle

    During Google search, we do not have a complete oracle to verify whether the number of returned results is correct. We may define a metamorphic relation [17] such that a follow-up narrowed-down search will produce fewer results. This is an example of a partial oracle, which is a hybrid between specified test oracle and derived test oracle.

  8. Chromosome 2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_2

    Chromosome 2 is one of the twenty-three pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 2 is the second-largest human chromosome, spanning more than 242 million base pairs [4] and representing almost eight percent of the total DNA in human cells. Chromosome 2 contains the HOXD homeobox gene cluster ...

  9. Somatic cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatic_cell

    In humans, this is 23 unpaired chromosomes. When two gametes (i.e. a spermatozoon and an ovum) meet during conception, they fuse together, creating a zygote. Due to the fusion of the two gametes, a human zygote contains 46 chromosomes (i.e. 23 pairs). [citation needed] A large number of species have the chromosomes in their somatic cells ...
