A normal human diploid zygote contains a full set of 46 chromosomes. A zygote refers to the initial cell that is formed when two gamete cells join together through sexual reproduction.
A normal human diploid zygote contains 46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs.
46 total chromosomes in 23 paired sets, one set from each parent.

It has 46 chromosomes . It is not haploid
A zygote is a fertilized egg cell, so it is diploid and thus has a full set of DNA. If the adult has 30 pairs of chromosomes, the zygote would have 30 pairs. If there are 30 chromosomes, then the zygote will have 60 (30 from the mother and 30 from the father). It comes down to whether you meant individual chromosomes or pairs of chromosomes.
Some Crayfish have 200
23x2=46 A human somatic cell contains 46 chromosomes
46 23 from each parent...unless there is a mutation. Hi sorry to but in, but i was just wondering. If a human zygote contains 46 chromosomes and then total chromosomes they have is 46. Then if a mouse has 40 chromosomes would it's zygote be 40 as well? I have Biology homework and i was just wondering. Thanks!
The human egg or sperm cell is haploid and contains 23 chromosomes. After fertilization (egg and sperm fusion), the zygote will have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).
A human diploid cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes.
46
If gametes were diploid, that would mean the zygote would get 46 chromosomes (in humans that is) from his father and 46 chromosomes from his mother, that would add up to 92.

When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.

human diploid numbers are 46 chromosomes (the total amount of chromosomes) and the haploid number is 23 (half the number of chromosomes) in meiosis the desired number is the haploid number for gametes (sex cells) and it becomes the diploid number after fertilization and for mitosis its the diploid number because it wants to maintain its chromosomes since its not sexual reproduction
every human have 46 chromosomes haploid(23)+haploid(23)=46 chromosomes
