How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are found in human body cells?

Human cells have 23 homologous pairs. They also must go through meiosis before that. Females have 2 X chromosomes, while Males have an X and a Y chromosome. That's why the males cells decide the gender of the child.

How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are found in the nucleus of a human somatic tissue cell?
there are 23 pairs of matching chromosomes 46 chromosomes altogether.
How many homologous pairs of chromosomes does a diploid human cell have?
A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.
How many homologous chromosomes do you have in your gametes?
Number of Homologous Chromosomes in GametesGametes contain 23 paired chromosomes. Gametes are haploid because they are sex cells to be combined with other haploid sex cells of the opposite gender to form the required 46 chromosomes that form a zygote (a future child), which is diploid.
How many pairs of chromosomes are found in a Split Pea cell?
Normal egg cells are haploid and a haploid cell can`t have pair of chromosomes.Pair of chromosomes actually means homologous pairs of chromosomes which are not present in eggs. Human egg contains 23 unpaired chromosomes and Drosophila egg contain 4 unpaired chromosomes which can`t be called 2 pairs as they are not homologous. Some abnormal eggs eg of parthenogenetic animals may possess paired chromosomes.
What are pairs of the same chromosomes called?
A pair of chromosomes is called a "chromosome pair."Generally, the two chromosomes in a pair are "homologous chromosomes."An individual form of a gene is called an "allele." (For example: if someone has genotype "Aa", they have two different alleles, "A" and "a")
Are homologous chromosomes different from human lungs?
No they are not. Chromosomes [homologous or (occasionally) not] make Lungs. The Nuclei of Lung Cells also make Chromosomes.
How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are found in the nucleus of a human somatic tissue cell?

How many homologous pairs of chromosomes does a diploid human cell have?
A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.
When and where could you find a homologous pair of chromosomes?
A pair of homologous chromosomes can be found within any regular diploid cell. Basically, this is any cell in the human body that is not egg or sperm.
1Normal human lung cells contain two copies of chromosome 3 Together these are called a pair of homologous chromosomes How are homologous chromosomes similar and how are they different from one ano?
Homologous chromosomes have all the same genes however they may have different alleles (versions) of those genes.
What is the number of chromosomes found in cells?
There are 46 chromosomes in a human body cell.
How many homologous chromosomes do you have in your gametes?
Number of Homologous Chromosomes in GametesGametes contain 23 paired chromosomes. Gametes are haploid because they are sex cells to be combined with other haploid sex cells of the opposite gender to form the required 46 chromosomes that form a zygote (a future child), which is diploid.
How many chromosomes does a kidney cell have?
There are 46 chromosomes in kidney cells, big toe cells, and tip-of-the-nose cells.This is because humans are diploid organisms (having two sets of chromosomes in all cells except gametes(23 chromosomes) and mature red blood cells, which extruded their nuclei when they were developing), and 46 is the human diploid number.

Matching pairs of chromosomes in a diploid cell is called?
Homologous chromosomes are chromosome pairs, one from each parent, that are similar in length,gene position, and centromere location. The position of the genes on each homologous chromosome is the same, however the genes may contain different alleles.A human karyotype shows the complete set of human chromosomes. Human cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes for a total of 46. Each chromosome pair represents a set of homologous chromosomes. In males, the sex chromosomes X and Y are homologues. In females, both X chromosomes are homologues.
How many chromosomes are usually found in human cells?
A single human cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes (22 autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes ). These are found in all human cells (RBC's and platelets being exception ). So with human body made up of unbountable number of cells, the actual number of chromosomes in the human body is unbountable times 46= unbountable.
