Every cell in the body has chromosomes within a membrane bound organelle called the nucleus. There are 23 chromosomes total and all cells in the body (with a few exceptions) have two copies of each (one from mother and one from father). Exceptions to this include red blood cells (which have no nuclei) and gametes such as females' eggs and males' sperm which only contain one copy of chromosomes.
