1. A human cell containing 22 autosomes and a Y chromosome is:
(A) a sperm
(B) an egg
(C) a zygote
(D) a somatic cell of a male

2. The two homologs of a pair move toward opposite poles of a dividing cell during:

Final answer:

In a human cell with 22 autosomes and a Y chromosome, it would be a somatic cell of a male. During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes move to opposite poles.


Explanation:

Autosomes refer to non-sex chromosomes, each human cell contains 22 pairs of these along with a pair of sex chromosomes (X and Y). A human cell with 22 autosomes and a Y chromosome would be found in: (D) a somatic cell of a male. During cell division, homologous chromosomes move to opposite poles during meiosis I, which is the answer to the second question.
