There are 23 pairs of chromosomes in all about 100 trillion body cells minus 25 trillion red blood cells and gametes. Red blood cells have no nucleus and so no chromosomes and gametes have half of them.

How many chromosomes do gametes have?

Gametes, such as sperm and egg cells in humans, contain half the number of chromosomes compared to other cells in the body. This means that in humans, gametes have 23 chromosomes each, instead of the usual 46 chromosomes found in most body cells.


How many chromosomes do humans have in their gamets?

Humans have 23 chromosomes in their gametes, which are sperm and egg cells. This is half the number of chromosomes found in a somatic cell, which has 46 chromosomes.


Are gametes associated with diploid chromosomes?

No, gametes are haploid cells, meaning they contain half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells. In humans, gametes (sperm and egg cells) each have 23 chromosomes, whereas diploid cells have 46 chromosomes. When two gametes combine during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote with the full complement of chromosomes.


All cells within an organism will have the same number of chromosomes except the gamete?

This is not entirely accurate. All cells in an organism carry the same number of chromosomes, except for gametes (sperm and egg cells) which are haploid and carry half the number of chromosomes as normal body cells (diploid).


Is the number of gametes twice the number of chromosomes found in the body cells?

Gametes are cells, in humans they contain 23 chromosomes. Body Cells (Properly Called: Somatic Cells) in humans contain 46 chromosomes (2 sets of 23). Some differences or problems can cause this number to change in specific humans, gametes, and somatic cells. Muscle cells may have hundreds of chromosomes, red blood cells have none.


Did any cell has odd number of chromosomes in it?

in humans the sperm and egg cells (gametes) have 23, half the number of chromosomes as in normal cells


What are cells with pairs of chromosomes?

This is a diploid number, and all cells except gametes/ sex cells which have a haploid or half this number. Red blood cells have no chromosomes at all.


Gametes are said to be?

sex cells, like sperm or eggs in humans. They are normally haploid.


What are the cells that are used for reproduction and that contain half the usual number of chromosomes?

Gametes are cells used for reproduction that contain half the usual number of chromosomes. In humans, gametes are sperm cells in males and egg cells in females. During fertilization, a sperm cell and an egg cell combine to form a zygote with the full complement of chromosomes.


All types of cell except the gametes have a nucleus that contain 46 arranged in 23 pairs?

All cells except gametes have a nucleus that contains 46 chromosomes arranged into pairs.


How many chromosomes does a gamete cell have?

75


Eggs or sperm are what cells?
