Depending on how a creature reproduces, a different amount of chromosomes are given. In sexual reproduction, two parents are involved, and each donates exactly half of the chromosomes, and each side donates a half symmetrical to the other's. In asexual reproduction, there's only one parent, and they pass every last chromosome on.
