In the nucleus of the cells
In a typical scenario, a fertilized egg receives half its chromosomes from the egg cell and half from the sperm cell. If there are 194 chromosomes in each body cell, the sperm would also have 97 chromosomes (half of 194). Therefore, the fertilized egg would have 97 (from the sperm) + 100 (from the egg) = 197 chromosomes.
A sperm cell from the same species would also contain 50 chromosomes. When an egg and sperm fuse during fertilization, the total number of chromosomes in the resulting zygote will be the sum of the chromosomes from the egg and sperm, which would be 100 in this case.
The only place you would be able to find a cell with 23 chromosomes would be in the sex cells (sperm cells of egg cells). There are 46 chromosomes in the human body. This is because when a sperm cell fertilises the egg cell, both with 23 single chromosomes, they join to make 46.
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 human egg or sperm cell is haploid and contains 23 chromosomes. After fertilization (egg and sperm fusion), the zygote will have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).
There are 23 chromosomes from the egg and 23 chromosomes from the sperm making it 46 in total when they both fuse together.
There are 23 chromosomes in each the sperm and the egg. When they fuse, the resulting embryo will have 46 chromosomes.
All human gametes (sex cells), which means egg cells and sperm cells, have 23 chromosomes. When the sperm fertilises the egg, the 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and the 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell join to make cells with 46 chromosomes. In summary, all cells in the human body have 46 chromosomes, except sperm cells and egg cells, which have 23.
Twenty-three chromosomes are in a cell that is formed from a sperm and egg cell.

Reproductive cells have half the number of chromosomes as body cells, so if a body cell has 22 chromosomes, then the reproductive cells (sperm or egg) would have 11 chromosomes. This is because during sexual reproduction, the sperm and egg combine to form a new cell with the full number of chromosomes.
No, but the egg does.
