Because there are 12 chromosomes in the sperm, it means that the grasshopper has 12 pairs of chromosomes. They would therefore have 12x2 chromosomes, or 24 chromosomes in total.he Diploid Number is usually twice that of the Haploid Number. Hence, since the sperm cells contains 12 chromosomes (Haploid), THE NUMBER OF CHROMOSOMES FROM A DIPLOID CELL WILL HAVE 24 CHROMOSOMES. Source(s): GCE O Level Candidate.
Mitral (MI-tral) valve prolapse (MVP) is a condition in which the heart's mitral valve doesn't work well. The flaps of the valve are floppy and don't close tightly. These flaps normally help seal or open the valve.
1 Sometimes mitral valve prolapse causes mitral valve regurgitation. 2  If the prolapse is severe, the valve leaflets can become disconnected from tendons that stretch between the leaflets and the heart muscle. 3  This can cause the valve to malfunction.roblems with the mitral valve include: 1  Mitral stenosis: The leaflets are fused, are too thick, or there is some other structural defect in the valve leaflets. 2  Sometimes, mitral stenosis occurs as a result of surgery to repair an abnormal mitral valve.
