OpenStudy (isaiahhlindsayy):

A ferrets haploid number of chromosomes is 20. How would the number of chromosomes in the ferrets body cells compare to the number of chromosomes in the gametes.

OpenStudy (moneyking):

The cells of the body have a diploid number of chromosomes (2N). The diploid number is usually double the haploid number (1N), so if the haploid number of chromosomes is 20, then 2x20=40. So the ferret's body cells have 40 chromosomes.
