# Definition Sets
1chromosomes with matching information42 sets
2chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes, that have the same structured, and that pair during meisosis30 sets
3chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes and the same structure21 sets
4two copies of each autosome18 sets
5chromosomes that are similar in size, shape, and genetic content11 sets
6chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes, that have the same structure, and that pair during meiosis7 sets
7chromosomes that are similar in size, shape and genetic content5 sets
8one of a matching pair of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent5 sets
9pairs of similar chromosomes5 sets
10chromosome pairs of the same length, centromere position, and staining pattern that possess genes for the same characters at corresponding loci. one homologous chromosome is inherited from the organism's father, the other from the mother.5 sets
11pair of identical chromosomes5 sets
12chromosomes that are the same size and shape and code for the same traits4 sets
13the chromosomes in each pair4 sets
14a pair of matching chromosomes in an organism with one from each parent.4 sets
15teh human cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes4 sets
16the two chromosomes that make up a matched pair in a diploid cell4 sets
17chromosomes that are similar in size, shape, and genetic content.4 sets
18a pair of chromosomes containing genes that code for the same proteins4 sets
19chromosomes that each have a cooresponding chromosome from the opposite sex parent.3 sets
20two chromosomes of each matching pair3 sets
21chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes and the same structure.3 sets
22chromosomes from the male parent has a corresponding chromosome from the female parent3 sets
23chromosomes that carry the same set of genes3 sets
24like chromosomes that make up pairs3 sets
25the two chromosomes that make up a matched pair in a diploid cell; two chromosomes that have the same length, centromere position, and possess the same genes; one of the two chromosomes is inherited from the mother, the other from the father.3 sets
26chromosomes that each have a corresponding chromosome from the opposite-sex parent3 sets
27a pair of similar chromosomes that have the same genes in the same order, but may have different versions (alleles) of those genes. one of the pair of chromosomes came from mom in an ovum, and the other came from dad in a sperm. humans have 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes.3 sets
28similar chromosome pairs3 sets
29paired chromosomes in diploid body cells that have genes for the same trait in the same order3 sets
30a pair of corresponding chromosomes3 sets
31paired chromosomes with genes for the same traits arranged in the same order2 sets
322 chromosomes; nearly identical (one from mom and one from dad)- they have the same genes2 sets
33all 23 pairs of chromosomes2 sets
34pairs of identical chromosomes that pair up in meiosis.2 sets
35two chromosomes in each pair are called this (also called homologs); they are the same length, have the same centromere position, same staining pattern, and carry genes controlling the same inherited characters; each pair has one chromosome from each parent2 sets
36pairs made up of similar chromosomes2 sets
37matching chromosomes2 sets
38pairs of chromosomes2 sets
39similar chromosomes2 sets
40matched gene for gene, but often the two members of a gene pair are slightly differet2 sets
