A human cell typically contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
A human diploid cell contains 46 chromosomes, organized in 23 pairs. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).
46 A human fetus starts out as two reproductive cells with 23 chromosomes each, making a fertile 46 chromosome cell that grows into a fetus. So, we are basically just a bunch of developed 46-chromosome-enriched cells.

A human haploid cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, with each chromosome having two DNA strands held together by hydrogen bonds to form base pairs. This means that there are approximately 3.2 billion base pairs in a human haploid cell, with each base pair composed of adenine pairing with thymine and cytosine pairing with guanine.
If the somatic (normal) cell has 38 chromosomes, then the diploid number will be 38. If the gametes (sperm and ovum/egg) have 38 chromosomes, then the diploid number will be 76.

A human diploid cell contains 46 chromosomes, organized in 23 pairs. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).
23 Pairs
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.
No. The human cell has 23 chromosome pairs (total 46 chromosomes). Each chromosome has many genes.
No. The human cell has 23 chromosome pairs (total 46 chromosomes). Each chromosome has many genes.
A haploid cell is a sex-chromosome without pair. A diploid cell is a sex-chromosome with pairs . People have 22 chromosome pairs and 2 chromosomes they do not have pairs. A man has XY chromosomes and a woman XX chromosomes.
22 pairs of autosomes, one X-chromosome, and one Y-chromosome
If you're talking about a human cell, then no. Diploid means you have two complete sets of chromosome. For a human, this would be 46. A human cell is haploid when it has only 23 chromosomes - this is the case for the sex cells: sperm and egg each have 23 chromosomes.The issue can be confused if you discuss chromosome pairs...in which case, 23 pairs of chromosomes in a human cell makes it a diploid cell.
