If the liver cell of an animal have 24 chromosomes how many chromosomes do its sperm cells have?

Body cells, like liver cells, are diploid. This means they have pairs of chromosomes. In this example the diploid number of chromosomes is 24. In sperm cells (or egg cells) the number of chromosomes is halved. This is described as the haploidnumber. In this example the haploid number would be 24/2 = 12. So the number of chromosomes in the sperm cells would be 12.
