How does the chromosome number of a muscle cell compare to that of an egg cell from the same animal?

A sperm cell is the male sex cell. As such it only carries 1/2 of the number of chromosomes of a regular cell. This is because it fuses with the female sex cell to form a complete set of chromosomes. Essentially, where the number of chromosomes in the muscle cell is 2n, the sperm cell only has n chromosomes.


If a heart cell has 30 chromosomes how many chromosomes do a sperm cell of the same organism have?

15. A sperm cell is an example of a haploid cell. Two haploid cells combine to form a diploid cell, of which a heart cell is an example.

Does a cheek cell contain the same chromosomes as a liver cell?

Yes. In an individual, almost all cells contain DNA (Red Blood Cells do not). That DNA is tightly wound like you would twist a drawstring, and kept tightly coiled as chromosomes. Since chromosomes can be found in a cheek cell, a liver cell (hepatocyte), and almost all other cells, they all contain the same chromosomes, which inevitably have the same genes. What makes cheek cells different from liver cells is which genes are turned on and off. Cheek cells have different genes turned on compared to liver cells.


How many chomosomes in your body?

In a normal Human body cell (not a gamete) there are 46 chromosomes. This is not the same number of chromosomes in our bodies, only in one cell, and there are trillions of cells in the human body. In a gamete (a sperm cell or egg cell) there are 23 chromosomes. When the sperm and egg cell nuclei fuse in fertilisation, a diploid cell of 46 chromosomes is produced.


How many chromosomes are in a sperm cell and in an egg cell?

Each gamete (or egg/sperm cell) has 23 chromosomes. So both egg & sperm cells have 23 chromosomes, however because gametes undergo meiosis the chromosomes are haploids so they don't look like X's. So they are not actually in pairs, as just eggs & sperm. They pair up once an egg is fertilized.
