Females only contain X in their sex chromosomes. That s why females have XX and males XY. When females form gametes, they only can form them with a X chromosome. This however have some exceptions, for example, chicken females are XY whereas males are the one with XX.
Gametes, also called sex cells, or sperm and egg cells, contain only one set of chromosomes.
A cell that contains both copies of each chromosome is called a Diploid cell.
Yes, sperm and egg cells each only contain half a set of chromosomes, while all other cells contain a full set of chromosomes.
Sex cells (better known as gametes) being product of meiosis have single set (haploid number) of chromosomes whereas body cells have diploid number. Thus, 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XY), thus 46 chromosomes are present in our body cells. The gametes (sex cells) contain only 23 chromosomes in each.
If they are somatic (body cells) then mitosis. If they are germ (sex) cells it is meiosis.
No. These cells contain only half the number of chromosomes as the other cells of the body. Each egg and sperm cell contain only 23 chromosomes.

Gametes, also called sex cells, or sperm and egg cells, contain only one set of chromosomes.
Haploid cells, as opposed to diploid cells. Haploid cells contain only 23 chromosomes, but normal diploid cells contain 46 chromosomes.
A cell that contains both copies of each chromosome is called a Diploid cell.
Yes, sperm and egg cells each only contain half a set of chromosomes, while all other cells contain a full set of chromosomes.
Reproductive cells or sex cells of an organism contain haploid number of chromosomes. All other body cells (or somatic cells) contain diploid number of chromosomes

Chromosomes are basically our DNA combined with structural protein. Sex cells contain chromosomes. Chromosomes are packaged genetic information while sex cells are the means by which people reproduce.
A muscle cell has a diploid number of chromosomes, which is 46. The germ cells, such as the sperm and egg, have 23 chromosomes.
Sex cells (better known as gametes) being product of meiosis have single set (haploid number) of chromosomes whereas body cells have diploid number. Thus, 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XY), thus 46 chromosomes are present in our body cells. The gametes (sex cells) contain only 23 chromosomes in each.
All body cells contain a total number of 46 chromosomes except sex cells (the egg and the sperm) which have half the number of chromosomes (23) no.... body cells or somatic cells have 46 chromosomes which is the diploid chromosome number of homo sapiens... gametes or sex cells have 23 chromosomes which is the haploid chromosome number...
