a human, gametes have 23. half the number of other cells
Sex cells, called gametes, are different to other cells in that they contain half the number of chromosomes. So in a human sex cell, there are 23 chromosomes, whereas a normal human cell has 46 chromosomes.
44 autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes are present in human somatic cells .
Sex cells have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell, and are said to be haploid. In human sex cells there are 23 chromosomes.
There are 46 chromosomes in a normal human cell and 23 in the sex cells. People with down syndrome has 47 chromosomes.
