If a Cod Fish Parent has 82 Chromosomes in its Body Cells, how many
chromosomes are found in each of the Sex Cells produced by Meiosis? *

41 chromosomes each

Explanation:

Meiosis is the means by which sexually-reproducing organisms produce gametes /sex cells used during reproduction. Meiosis is a kind of cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) with a reduced number of chromosomes (by half). This means that meiosis reduces the chromosomal number of parents cell in the gametes.

Based on this, if a cod fish that possesses 82 chromosomes in Its somatic or body cells undergo meiotic division in order to produce gametes. The chromosome number of the sex cells will be reduced by half i.e. from 82 chromosomes (diploid, 2n) to 41 chromosomes (haploid, n)
