Like all other cell types, chromosomes are found in nucleus only(head of the sperm). But the human sperm cell is haploid, so that its 23 chromosomes can join the 23 chromosomes of the female egg to form a diploid cell during fertilization.
What else can I help you with?
How many pairs of chromosomes do human somatic cells contain?
Human somatic cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
Does somatic cells contain sex chromosomes?
Yes, somatic cells contain sex chromosomes. In humans, somatic cells typically contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, including one pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).
What cell types contains the least number of chromosomes?
Sex cells contain half the number of chromosomes that body cells contain.
Are homologous chromosomes present in diploid or haploid cells?
Homologous chromosomes are present in diploid cells, which contain two sets of chromosomes (one inherited from each parent). In contrast, haploid cells contain only one set of chromosomes.
How many chromosomes does each the male and female reproductive cell contain?
Male reproductive cells (sperm) contain 23 chromosomes, while female reproductive cells (eggs) also contain 23 chromosomes. When these two cells combine during fertilization, the resulting zygote will have a total of 46 chromosomes - 23 from each parent.
Through the process of meiosis sex cells are produced that are?
Haploid cells, as opposed to diploid cells. Haploid cells contain only 23 chromosomes, but normal diploid cells contain 46 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes do Elephant egg cells have?
Elephants have a diploid number of 56 chromosomes, which means their egg cells (ova) contain half of that number, or 28 chromosomes. This is typical for many species, where egg and sperm cells contain half the number of chromosomes found in somatic (body) cells.
How many chromosomes do the sperm cells contain?
23
What do chromosomes contain that control the characteristic of the cells?
genes
Differentiate between diploid and haploid cells.?
Diploid cells contain 2 complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent. an example would be somatic cells. Haploid cells are cells that contain 1 set of unpaired chromosomes of half the number of chromosomes as a somatic cell.
