It has 46 chromosomes because it is a body cell. All body cells have 46 chromosomes except our sex cells, which have 23. Body cells are refered to as 2n, or diploid, while sex cells are just n, or haploid. When sex cells combine they form another regular body cell, because the chromosomes come together.
