Diploid
There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.
The number of chromosomes in a female egg cell is 23. This is half the number of chromosomes found in a normal cell, as during fertilization, the egg cell will combine with a sperm cell which also carries 23 chromosomes to form a complete set of 46 chromosomes in the resulting embryo.
A fertilized egg, or zygote, typically has 46 chromosomes. This is a result of the coming together of the egg (23 chromosomes) from the mother and the sperm (23 chromosomes) from the father during fertilization.
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.

There are 23 chromosomes in a human egg or sperm cell, which is the haploid number. During fertilization, when the egg and sperm combine, they form a zygote with the full complement of 46 chromosomes, known as the diploid number.
An octopus egg cell typically contains half the number of chromosomes as a normal octopus cell, which is known as haploid. In most species of octopus, this means the egg cell will contain 17 chromosomes.
A human egg/sperm cell has 23 chromosomes. When the sperm and egg fuse together,, the zygote (fertilised egg) contains 46 chromosomes. Scientists call this the diploid number, with the sperm/egg having a haploid number of chromosomes. This number varies between species.
The number of chromosomes found in either and egg of sperm is half the number of chromosomes found in a normal cell of the organism. For example, if you are thinking of a human sperm or egg cell is would be 23 chromosomes, since the normal human cell has 46.
The egg cell of a weed will typically have half the number of chromosomes as a normal body cell of that weed species. This is because the egg cell undergoes meiosis to reduce the chromosome number in preparation for fertilization.
All human cells , with the exception of sperm and egg cells, have the same number of chromosomes (46). Sperm and Egg cells have half that number.
