What are the first twenty two pairs of chromosomes in a human cell called?
They are called autosomes.
What is the term for chromosomes that do not determine sex?
Chromosomes that aren't sex chromosomes are called autosomes. There are 44 autosomes in a normal human somatic cell and 22 in normal human gametes. The only chromosomes that affect the sex of an organism is the X and/or Y chromosome. XX = Female and XY = Male.
How many pairs of autosomes does the human male liver have?
Typically, 22 pairs or 44 chromosomes in humans. The number doesn't change between males and females whose only difference are the other 2 of the 46 total chromosomes, the aptly named sex chromosomes. So really the factor that decides how many autosomal chromosomes the organism has is what kind of organism it is (human? dog? cat? orangutan? moon jellyfish??)
How many chromosomes does a normal human diploid cell have?
22 pairs of autosomes, one X-chromosome, and one Y-chromosome
What human body cell consists of 22 homologous pairs?
Humans have 46 chromosomes (or 23 pairs). One pair is known as the sex chromosomes X and Y. The remaining 22 pairs that do not determine the gender of offspring are the homologous chromosomes
How many chromosomes are found in a diploid human cell?
There are 22 pairs of autosomes in a human somatic cell.
What type of typical body cell has 46 chromosomes?
The typical body cell (or somatic cell) of a human has 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. In females, there are two X chromosomes and in males there is one X and one Y.
What is a human cell containing 22 autosomes and a Y chromosomes?

What does the cell have 23 pairs of?

How many autosomes are there in a human sex cell?
A human gamete has 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome. However, special cases may arise due to aneuploidy which can result in two copies of an autosome, e.g. chromosome 21, 18, etc. or the non-disjunction of sex chromosomes, X and/or Y.
