1chromosomes with matching information32 sets
2chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes, that have the same structured, and that pair during meisosis19 sets
3chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes and the same structure16 sets
4two copies of each autosome15 sets
5chromosomes that are similar in size, shape, and genetic content10 sets
6chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes, that have the same structure, and that pair during meiosis7 sets
7chromosome 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
8pairs of similar chromosomes5 sets
9pair of identical chromosomes5 sets
10a pair of matching chromosomes in an organism with one from each parent.4 sets
11teh human cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes4 sets
12the chromosomes in each pair4 sets
13chromosomes that are similar in size, shape and genetic content4 sets
14a pair of chromosomes containing genes that code for the same proteins4 sets
15a 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
16one of a matching pair of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent3 sets
17chromosomes that carry the same set of genes3 sets
18chromosomes that are the same size and shape and code for the same traits3 sets
19like chromosomes that make up pairs3 sets
20chromosomes that are similar in size, shape, and genetic content.3 sets
21chromosomes from the male parent has a corresponding chromosome from the female parent3 sets
22a pair of corresponding chromosomes3 sets

26pairs of chromosomes2 sets
27paired chromosomes with genes for the same traits arranged in the same order2 sets
28paired chromosomes with genes for the same trait arranged in the same order2 sets
29chromosomes that each have a corresponding chromosome from the opposite-sex parent2 sets
30paired chromosomes in diploid body cells that have genes for the same trait in the same order2 sets
31chromosomes that are partners2 sets
32the 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.2 sets
33chromosomes that contain the same set of genes2 sets
34having the same alleles or genes in the same order of arrangement2 sets
35pairs of identical chromosomes that pair up in meiosis.2 sets
36all 23 pairs of chromosomes2 sets
37two 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
38two chromosomes of each matching pair2 sets
39chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes and the same structure.2 sets
40the two copies of each autosome2 sets
