    5 chromosomes.

    Explanation:

    Monosomy is a term used when only one copy of a chromosome is present, instead of the usual pair. If mosquitoes have 2n=6 chromosomes, an adult mosquito with monosomy will have only one chromosome in one of its pairos giving a total of 6-1=5 chromosomes

    I hope you find this information useful. Good luck!
