How many chromosomes do bananas have?

Answer 1

No. Wild and cultivated bananas have a basic haploid number of 11. The human haploid number is 23. In banana cultivation and breeding, people have developed triploids and tetraploids. Some scientists think that the banana's haploid number of 11 evolved from an earlier number of 8.

Answer 2

The answer depends on which banana is being referenced. A wild banana which is a diploid has 22 chromosomes. This is because it has 11 pairs of chromosomes. The cavendish (the banana that is most widely available), however is a triploid and has 33 chromosomes or 11 sets or 3 chromosomes.

Answer 3

Either 33 or 22 I'm not sure you should check with your science teacher or look it up on a Internet biology site.

Answer 4

Bananas: 22 chromosones in total, 2 copies of each chromosone (11 types of chromosones)

Answer 5

Haploid 11
