Human cells contain forty-six chromosomes each. An exception to this is gametes (oocytes and sperm), which contain twenty-three chromosomes each.

Egg cells are also known as oocytes. Egg cells and sperm cells are gametes, and they have half the number of chromosomes that are in the other cells in the body.

no. the person who told you that was probably testing your gullibility.
HPV will not discolor sperm. See your health care provider for STD testing if you're having unusual genital symptoms.
The gametes (sperm and unfertilized egg, or ovum).In humans, body cells are diploid. To form gametes, specialized cells in the gonads (primary spermatocytes in males, and primary oocytes in females) must go through meiosis.Strictly, there are more than two types of cell that are haploid. The cells formed by meiosis I are haploid, and these are (in males) secondary spermatocytes, and (in females) secondary oocytes. These divide (meiosis II) to form more haploid cells that differentiate into the gametes.The secondary spermatocytes, secondary oocytes, and gametes are the only haploid cells in humans. In other organisms, it can be quite another story!
secondary oocytes are haploid cells carrying 23 chromosomes. After fertilization by sperm a Zygote is formed with a diploid number 46.
