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.

How many chromosomes have non somatic cell?
Except in the egg and sperm, all cells are somatic cells and have the normal number of chromosomes.
How many chromosomes in normal human eggs and sperm is the same as in the body cells?
There are 23 chromosomes in human egg/sperm. In other human body cells there are 46 chromosomes.
How many of the 12 chromosomes in the jimsonweed datura stramonium are egg cells?
24
Do chromosomes only occur in egg and sperm cells?
No, sex cells just have 1/2 the chromosomes of the rest of cells.
How many chromosomes do each human egg cell have?
A human egg/sperm cell has 23 chromosomes. When the sperm and egg fuse together,, the zygote (fertilised egg) contains 46 chromosomes. Scientists call this the diploid number, with the sperm/egg having a haploid number of chromosomes. This number varies between species.
How do the number of chromosomes in a female scorpion's egg cells compare with the number in her body (somatic) cells?
There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.
A pig has 38 chromosomes in each of its body cells how many chromosomes will be in each of the egg cells released by a female pig?
Sex cells are haploid cells, meaning that they have half the cells of body cells. If a pig has 38 chromosomes, then in its egg cells there will be 19 chromosomes. Also in a male pig there will be 19 in its sperm cells.
How many chromosomes does a liver cell have?
All human cells , with the exception of sperm and egg cells, have the same number of chromosomes (46). Sperm and Egg cells have half that number.
How many chromosomes will be in the unfertilized egg of a great green galoofus lizard?
Body cells are diploid, which means they have two sets of chromosomes. Sex cells, both egg and sperm cells, are haploid, which means they have one set of chromosomes. So if the body cells have 56 chromosomes, the unfertilized egg would have 28 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes have non somatic cell?
Except in the egg and sperm, all cells are somatic cells and have the normal number of chromosomes.
Suppose that the great green galoofus lizard has fifty-two chromosomes in the nucleus of its body or somatic cells. How many chromosomes will be in the unfertilized egg of a great green galoofus lizar?
Body cells are diploid, which means they have two sets of chromosomes. Sex cells, both egg and sperm cells, are haploid, which means they have one set of chromosomes. So if the body cells have 56 chromosomes, the unfertilized egg would have 28 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes are in the egg and in the sperm cells?
Half the number that are in the adults normal body cells
How many chromosomes does a sperm or egg have?
Gametes Have 23 Single Chromosomes, this means at fertilisation the pairs join together to make 23 pairs of Chromosomes. This is because Gametes are unspecialised cells so don't need all the Chromosomes that specialised cells have.
How many of the 12 chromosomes in the jimsonweed datura stramonium are egg cells?
24
How many chromosomes in normal human eggs and sperm is the same as in the body cells?
There are 23 chromosomes in human egg/sperm. In other human body cells there are 46 chromosomes.
How many total chromosomes are in each body cell?
all cells of body except egg and sperm have 23 pairs of chromosomes i.e. 46...but egg and sperm have 23 chromosomes
Do chromosomes only occur in egg and sperm cells?
No, sex cells just have 1/2 the chromosomes of the rest of cells.
