Gametes (sex celles) such as egg and sperm only contain one set of chromosomes this is is called a hapliod nucleus. when the 2 meet this forms a full pair of chromosomes and makes a dapliod nucleus.
The cells that have pairs of homologous chromosomes are called diploid cells.
Human somatic cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
Somatic (diploid) cells have pairs of chromosomes. They have 46 chromosomes, making 23 pairs.Gametes are sex cells (eggs and sperm), they only have 23 chromosomes total. This is because they will combine with another gamete to form an embryo that will have 46.
46 chromosomes (23 pairs) half from the mom half from the dad
Human sex cells which only have a haploid number of chromosomes. 23 total chromosomes. Red blood cells have no chromosomes also.
The cells that have pairs of homologous chromosomes are called diploid cells.
A cell with pairs of chromosomes is called a diploid cell, while a cell with no pairs of chromosomes is called a haploid cell. Diploid cells have two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, while haploid cells have only one set of chromosomes.
