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.
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a very common condition, affecting 1 to 2 percent of the population. MVP causes the leaflets of the mitral valve to flop back into the left atrium during the heart's contraction. MVP also causes the tissues of the valve to become abnormal and stretchy, causing the valve to leak. The condition rarely causes symptoms and usually doesn't require treatment. Other causes of valve disease include: coronary artery disease, heart attack, cardiomyopathy (heart muscle disease), syphilis (a sexually transmitted disease), hypertension, aortic aneurysms, and connective tissue diseases.
