Background The ant Myrmecia pilosula has the smallest number of chromosomes possible in a eukaryote: females have only one pair of chromosomes, and males have only one chromosome! Put another way, female M. pilosula can be described as having the haploid condition n = 1 and the diploid condition 2n = 2. Question Based on this and your understanding of gamete formation, how many different sets of chromosomes can a female M. pilosula produce in her gametes?
