This is because in chimpanzees, as in humans, the gametes (eggs and sperms) are formed by the type of division called meiosis. During meiosis, the number of chromosomes is halved.

∙ 12y agoA person is made up of 46 chromosomes, and reproductive cells have half that, so a sperm has 23.

∙ 15y agogametes have n chromosomes, so sperm cell = 23

A sex cell contains half the number of chromosomes found in a somatic (normal) cell. Therefore a human sex cell would contain 23 chromosomes.
A dog sperm contains 39 chromosomes. A dog somatic (non-sex) cell contains 78 chromosomes.
The only place you would be able to find a cell with 23 chromosomes would be in the sex cells (sperm cells of egg cells). There are 46 chromosomes in the human body. This is because when a sperm cell fertilises the egg cell, both with 23 single chromosomes, they join to make 46.

Sperm cells are zygotes (specialised cells with only 23 chromosomes).
One in each cell.
If it had 180 chromosomes in it's diploid stage (a normal body cell) you could expect to find 90 in its gametes.
A sperm cell
No - a zygote will be diploid. The sperm and egg are haploid - but they combine to create the zygote - which means it will have 2 sets of chromosomes.
A sperm cell contains 23 [unpaired] chromosomes.
Twenty-three chromosomes are in a cell that is formed from a sperm and egg cell.

The number of chromosomes found in either and egg of sperm is half the number of chromosomes found in a normal cell of the organism. For example, if you are thinking of a human sperm or egg cell is would be 23 chromosomes, since the normal human cell has 46.
22 pairs = 44 chromosomes OR Blue whales have 44 chromosomes in every cell. Determine how many chromosomes you would expect to find in the following: i. Sperm Cell: 22 ii. Egg Cell:22 iii. Daughter Cell from Mitosis:44 iv. Daughter Cell from Meiosis II: 22
Frogs have 26 chromosomes in their somatic cells. A frog's sperm would be a haploid cell, meaning that the cell contains half the amount of chromosomes that it's somatic cells have. So a frog's sperm cell would contain 13 chromosomes.
Sperm cell, as it's haploid (23 chromosomes) as opposed to diploid (46 chromosomes).
