Do sperm cells have the same number of chromosomes as the man that produced them?

Sperm and eggs have half as many chromosomes as other cells because they are Gametes which contain one set of chromsomes, as opposed to the regular two.
(The 2 join and you end up with a total of 46, total chromosome count for humans.)
Hope this helped.

The sperm and egg cell each have half the set of chromosomes (which carry the DNA, or genetic info.), which is 23. When they combine, the fetus will have 46 chromosomes, the full amount for a human being. So yes, the reproductive cells carry all of the genetic information.

Wiki User
∙ 11y agoNo. Egg cells and sperm cells have reduced number of chromosomes (23 chromosomes instead of 46).
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoYes they both have 23 chromosones each

What best describes the sperm cells of an animal that are produced from primary sex cells?
They contain the monoploid number of chromosomes.
What are gametes and which ones are produced by males?
gametes are sex cells that have haploid number of chromosomes. Sperm are the ones produced by males, or pollen in plants.
If the liver cell of an animal have 24 chromosomes how many chromosomes do its sperm cells have?
Body cells, like liver cells, are diploid. This means they have pairs of chromosomes. In this example the diploid number of chromosomes is 24. In sperm cells (or egg cells) the number of chromosomes is halved. This is described as the haploidnumber. In this example the haploid number would be 24/2 = 12. So the number of chromosomes in the sperm cells would be 12.
What are the cells that are used for reproduction and that contain half the usual number of chromosomes?
What we call gametes (egg or sperm cells) have half the number of chromosomes.
How many chromosomes are found in sperm cells from the above organism?
The number of chromosomes in sperm cells varies among organisms. Without knowing the specific organism mentioned above, it is not possible to determine the exact number of chromosomes in its sperm cells.

Number of chromosomes in eggs and sperm cells?
I assume you mean human egg and sperm cells. There is a haploid number of chromosomes in these cells. 23 chromosomes. n.
Are sperm cells made by meiosis?
Sperm cells are essentially produced by the meiosis. So that you have half the chromosomes in the sperm cell.

How many chromosomes does a liver cell have?
All human cells , with the exception of sperm and egg cells, have the same number of chromosomes (46). Sperm and Egg cells have half that number.
If the number of chromosomes in the skin cells of an organism is 28 what is the number of chromosomes in the organisms egg cells?
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes that most cells in the organism have. Most human cells have 46 chromosomes, but eggs and sperm have 23 chromosomes each.
How many chromosomes are found in sperm cells from the above organism?
The number of chromosomes in sperm cells varies among organisms. Without knowing the specific organism mentioned above, it is not possible to determine the exact number of chromosomes in its sperm cells.
Did any cell has odd number of chromosomes in it?
in humans the sperm and egg cells (gametes) have 23, half the number of chromosomes as in normal cells
Why must the number of chromosomes in the sperm and egg be half the number of chromosomes in other cells of an organism?
I have the same queston
Where are the haploid number of chromosomes found?
The cells that have a haploid complement of chromosomes are the gametes - the ovum and the sperm.
