What is a cell that contains both sets of a Homologous chromosomes?
A cell containing both sets of homologous chromosomes is called a diploid. One is usually taken from the mother and one from the father.
How many chromosomes come from the mother and father?
23 Chromosomes come from a father(sperm cell) and 23 from mother(egg)
Why is the cell called a diploid cell?
Unlike the haploid cell which consists of one chromosome, the somatic (diploid) cell contains two chromosomes (one from the mother and one from the father)
How many chromosomes are in a human skin cell?
there are 46 chromosomes in a human skin cell.
How many chromosomes are in a sperm cell compared to a skin cell?
In a healthy person with no genetic disorders, there will be double the number of chromosomes in a skin cell versus an egg cell. This is because a skin cell is a somatic (non-sex) cell and is diploid (2 sets of chromosomes - 1 from the mother and 1 from the father). An egg cell is a sex cell and is haploid (only contains 1 set of chromosomes - the mother). When combined with a sperm cell (the other set from the father), a zygote results which is now diploid (having one set from both parents).
What is the name of the sex cell that contains the chromosomes from the mother?
The female gamete or egg cell.
How many chromosomes does the zygote receive from the mother?
The zygote receives 23 chromosomes from the mother. It inherits one set of chromosomes from each parent, with 23 chromosomes coming from the egg (mother) and 23 chromosomes coming from the sperm (father).
A normal human body cell has a total of chromosomes chromosomes come from the mother and chromosomes come from the father?

How many chromosomes are in a human reporductive cell?

If there are 46 chromosomes in a human body where does half come from?
Half of the chromosomes in a human body come from the egg cell provided by the mother, which contains 23 chromosomes. The other half comes from the sperm cell provided by the father, which also contains 23 chromosomes. When these two cells combine during fertilization, they create a zygote with a total of 46 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes are in a normal human cell?
46 chromosomes23 pairs
