During the Prophase stage of Meiosis, rather than Mitosis, chromosomes are split from 46 to 23. Meiosis is the same basic process as Mitosis, yet is what occurs in gametes rather than other non-gamete cells.
A primary spermatocyte will have 46 chromosomes or chromatids. Primary spermatocytes are diploid cells. Secondary spermatocytes are haploid cells with only 23 chromosomes.
Each cell has 46 chromosomes. Eggs and sperm each have 23, thus a human has 46.
2n=46
23, there are 23 chromosomes in human gametes
No, 29 chromosomes is not a normal number for a female. Typically, females have 46 chromosomes, consisting of two copies of 23 chromosomes.
A primary spermatocyte will have 46 chromosomes or chromatids. Primary spermatocytes are diploid cells. Secondary spermatocytes are haploid cells with only 23 chromosomes.
Each cell has 46 chromosomes. Eggs and sperm each have 23, thus a human has 46.
2n=46
46 chromosomes 23 pairs
There are 23 pairs of chromosomes and 46 total.
46 chromosomes (23 pairs)
46 is the diploid number of chromosomes in a human cell and 23 is the total number of haploid cells in humans
A muscle cell has a diploid number of chromosomes, which is 46. The germ cells, such as the sperm and egg, have 23 chromosomes.
Each cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes - a total of 46.
23 pairs, 46 chromosomes
diploid=46 and haploid=23
The number of chromosomes in a organism can vary. Humans have 46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs.
