Many sources say that the average human has 100 trillion cells in their body. So, one cell would be 1/100 trillionth of your entire body. I've also heard that the average cell contains 100 trillion atoms. That means your body contains roughly 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms.

How does number of chromosomes in a human body cell compare with the number of chromosomes in a human reproductive cell?

In the human body there are 23 pairs of chromosomes (46 in total); in reproductive cells there are only one half of the pair (or 23 in total). During fertilization the 23 from the male sperm cell fuse with the 23 from the female ovule and recombine as two pairs of 23 chromosomes (46 again in total). Normal human cells are diploid (2n), while sex cells are haploid (n)


How many chromosomes in human gametes?

Human gametes have 23 chromosomes each, half of the total number of chromosomes found in regular human cells (which is 46). During fertilization, when a sperm and an egg combine, the resulting zygote will have a total of 46 chromosomes.


How many cells build up the human skin?

It is estimated that there are about 1.6 trillion cells that build up the human skin. The entire body has a total of 100 trillion cells with the sin taking 16 percent of the total.


How many chromosomes do human egg cells and sperm cells have?

There are 23 chromosomes in a human sperm or egg (ovum).Of these, 22 are autosomes, and there is one sex chromosome: either an X or a Y. So 23 is the human haploid number.


Which human cells never have 23 pairs of chromosomes?

Human sex cells which only have a haploid number of chromosomes. 23 total chromosomes. Red blood cells have no chromosomes also.


How many pair of chromosomes do normal human cells contain?

Gametic [haploid] Cells are chromosome number n - which involves 23 individual chromosomes. Somatic [or diploid] Cells are chromosome number 2n - which involves 23 pairs of chromosomes. Mitotic Cells are 4n.


How many pairs of chromosomes do human somatic cells contain?

Human somatic cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.


What are the two types of cells in your body and how do they relate to the terms of haploid and diploid?

gametes and somatic cells???? gametes are haploid, which is half(23) of the normal human total(46). Somatic cells, are all other body cells and contain 46, or 23 pairs/sets of chromosomes.....Gametes are only used for reproduction, and are thus found in a fertile's body reproduction system...


How many cells are there in the world?

It is estimated that there are approximately 37.2 trillion cells in the human body alone. However, it is impossible to accurately determine the total number of cells in the world due to the vast diversity of living organisms and their varying cell counts.


How many cells does a bone marrow have?

Bone marrow contains two types of stem cells: hemopoietic (which can produce blood cells) and stromal (which can produce fat, cartilage and bone). But the number of cells depend on which bone it is. The total number of cells in our body cannot be counted accurately However the total number of cell in an average human being is about 10^13 to 10^14


Do Body cells only have half the total number of chromosomes?

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...
