They are paired. Males have XY as a pair and females have XX as pairs.
32
In humans, there are 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females or XY in males) in somatic cells. Therefore, there are 0 unpaired chromosomes in a normal human somatic cell.
Normal egg cells are haploid and a haploid cell can`t have pair of chromosomes.Pair of chromosomes actually means homologous pairs of chromosomes which are not present in eggs. Human egg contains 23 unpaired chromosomes and Drosophila egg contain 4 unpaired chromosomes which can`t be called 2 pairs as they are not homologous. Some abnormal eggs eg of parthenogenetic animals may possess paired chromosomes.
The only place you would be able to find a cell with 23 chromosomes would be in the sex cells (sperm cells of egg cells). There are 46 chromosomes in the human body. This is because when a sperm cell fertilises the egg cell, both with 23 single chromosomes, they join to make 46.
ally know the answer thats why i asked but i think the answer is 46 but i need the help of u guys to help me confirm the number of unpaired chromosomes for both male and female :) thank you in advance.
Somatic (diploid) cells have pairs of chromosomes. They have 46 chromosomes, making 23 pairs. All the cells in the human body are diploid cells, with the exception of the gametes (sperm and ova).Gametes are sex cells (eggs and sperm), they only have 23 chromosomes total. This is because they will combine with another gamete to form an embryo that will have 46.
Body cells have "pairs" of chromosomes while sex cells have only single sets of chromosomes. The human body cells have 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes for a total of 23 pairs or 46 chromosomes.But sex cells (sperm or ovum, known as gametes or diploid cells) contain only 23 chromosomes (unpaired), when they meet (forming a Zygote), the 23 from each male and female gamete form a cell containing 46 chromosomes to make a Haploid cell.Normal body cells (known as a haploid cells) contain 46 chromosomes (or 23 pairs of chromosomes).There are genetic diseases/disorders such as Down's syndrome that occasionally have one more.Normally, 46. Unless aneuploidy occurs.46 Chromosomes in human body
A normal human diploid zygote contains a full set of 46 chromosomes. A zygote refers to the initial cell that is formed when two gamete cells join together through sexual reproduction.
Human somatic cells typically have 46 chromosomes.
That depends completely upon the Species of the Body. The human body's Cells possess 46 individual chromosomes except that they are not actually individual because they actually exist in a paired configuration that yeilds 23 Chromosome Pairs.
Human kidney cells are body cells, so they would have 46 chromosomes.
Human cells have 23 distinct types of chromosomes, including the 22 autosomes and the X or Y sex chromosome. (The autosomes are usually paired and are the same in both sexes.) You inherit one of each type from each of your parents so that the typical human somatic cell has 46 chromosomes. (Sperm and egg cells, of course, have 23 each.) While there is no difference in the 44 autosomnal chromosomes by sex, the sex chromosomes are paired XX in a woman and XY in a man.
