Adiploid organism whose somatic (nonsex) cells each contain 32 chromosomes produces gametes containing chromosomes.

16 chromosomes

Explanation:

A diploid cell is a cell with two complete set of chromosomes (2n). The somatic or body cell is a cell that has no part to play in reproduction. Hence it is simply meant for other functions like growth, repair etc. other than reproduction.

All cells undergo mitosis, while only reproductive cells undergo meiosis. Hence, a cell with 32 body chromosomes will undergo meiotic division to produce gametes.

N.B: Meiosis is one of the two types of cell division, other being mitosis, that produces four daughter cells (gametes) with each having half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. It is also called reduction division.

In this case, a diploid (2n) cell with 32 chromosomes will undergo meiosis to produce gametes with 16 chromosomes each (reduced by half). This is to ensure that during gamete fusion or fertilization, each resultant individual/zygote received the correct number of chromosomes i.e. 16 (from male) + 16 (from female) = 32 chromosomes in total.

1. amino acid refers to the fundamental building block of proteins, comprising of an amino group and a carboxyl group.

2. catalyst refers to any substance, which increases the rate of chemical reaction without being used up in the reaction.

3. a complex molecule containing he genetic code is dna or deoxyribonucleic acid.

4. an enzyme refers to a molecule of protein, which is unique in accelerating up a particular chemical reaction in the biological systems.

5. nucleic acid refers to an sequence of sugars, phosphates, and nitrogenous bases, for example, dna and rna.

6. a protein refers to a large, composite organic molecule comprising of a huge number of amino acids associated together with the of peptide bonds.

7. rna refers to a nucleic acid that takes part in the production of proteins.

8. substrate refers to a compound, which takes part in a chemical reaction, and is chemically modified by the reaction.
