In the sex cells you only have half of the number of chromosomes- 23 instead of 46 which is what you have in your other body cells
This is because when the sperm fertilizes the egg, the two nuclei fuse together and the chromosomes combine so you then have the right number for normal body cells to develop in the baby.
There are half as many chromosomes in gametes than in normal body cells.

it compares by 50% or by half of chromosomes because there are 23 sex cells and 46 chromosomes
it compares by 50% or by half of chromosomes because there are 23 sex cells and 46 chromosomes
There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.

yes it has 23 cells.
Cells typically have two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent, while sex cells (sperm and egg cells) only have one set of chromosomes. This means that cells have a diploid number of chromosomes, while sex cells have a haploid number of chromosomes.
sex cells(gametes) are haploid in nature as compared to body cells(somatic cells) thus the number of chromosomes in a sex cell of a grasshopper is half the number of chromosomes in a body cell

The diploid number is "2n" and the haploid number is "n". Humans have 46 chromosomes, which are equal to the diploid number. half of these chromosomes are the haploid number, which is = 23.
