A human gamete has 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome. However, special cases may arise due to aneuploidy which can result in two copies of an autosome, e.g. chromosome 21, 18, etc. or the non-disjunction of sex chromosomes, X and/or Y.

In humans, there are 23 chromosomes in one set. Of these, one is a sex chromosome, and the other 22 are autosomes.

So there are 22 autosomes in a human gamete (spermatozoon or ovum). In the zygote and all the body cells subsequently formed from the zygote, there are two sets (the diploid condition) and therefore 44 autosomes (two genetically different versions of each of the 22).

Typically, 22 pairs or 44 chromosomes in humans.
