47.
Female cells contain the sex chromosomes XX. A female gamete (ovum/egg) contains one X chromosome.
yes there are because in a goldfish body cell there are 94 chromosomes. in order to find the amount of chromosomes in a sex cell of a goldfish you need to divide the body cells by two. this is so because in order to make another goldfish half need to come from daddy and half need to come from mommy this is why you divide by half. therefore there are 47 chromosomes in a goldfish's sex cell.
In each cell it contains 23 chromosomes.
Normally, every somatic cell in the human body contains 46 chromosomes.
A normal human cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46. If you had an average of 40 trillion cells in your body that had 412 chromosomes you would have 4456 trillion chromosomes in your body. Note that some mature cells in your body do not have any chromosomes, some have 26 chromosomes and some cells have 99 chromosomes.
Sex cells contain half the number of chromosomes that body cells contain.
Sperm contains 23 chromosomes. An egg contains 23 chromosomes. The zygote (a fertilized egg) contains 46 chromosomes. Yet, it is also important to consider that the egg completes meiosis before joining with the sperm, thereby shedding half of its 46 chromosomes into a polar body that adjoins the zona pelucida lining.
Each body cell in an earthworm contains 36 chromosomes.

If a regular diploid body cell, (liver, skin etc..) have 60 chromosomes then the gamete (reproductive cell ie sperm/egg) have half that numberof chromosomes- So the Bull's liver cell contains 60 chromosomes.
Chromosomes are made up of DNA in living organisms. In humans, the DNA is located in the nucleus of every cell in your body. The chromosomes are the map to the human body and contains instructions for each cell to follow, building proteins to keep the body functioning,
You get the other 23 from the opposite sex. The semen and the egg combines and gets 46 chromosomes. If each gamete contained 46 chromosomes, the zygote would contain 92 chromosomes.
