Except in the egg and sperm, all cells are somatic cells and have the normal number of chromosomes.
46 chromosomes arranged into 23 pairs at replication.
A human somatic cell typically contains 46 chromosomes organized into 23 pairs. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes (non-sex chromosomes) and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).
A dog sperm cell typically contains 39 chromosomes, which is half the number of chromosomes found in a normal dog cell. When a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell, the resulting zygote will have a full set of 78 chromosomes.
It will depend on the animal - the number of chromosomes varies from species to species. Somatic cells are non-sex cells. This means that in sexually reproducing animals, somatic cells usually have 2 pairs of chromosomes (they are called diploid cells). Human somatic cells have 46 (23 pairs of) chromosomes. Cat somatic cells have 38 (19 pairs of) chromosomes. Dogs have 78 (39 pairs of) chromosomes.
In a healthy person with no genetic disorders, there will be double the number of chromosomes in a skin cell versus an egg cell. This is because a skin cell is a somatic (non-sex) cell and is diploid (2 sets of chromosomes - 1 from the mother and 1 from the father). An egg cell is a sex cell and is haploid (only contains 1 set of chromosomes - the mother). When combined with a sperm cell (the other set from the father), a zygote results which is now diploid (having one set from both parents).
A frog somatic cell typically has a diploid number of chromosomes, which is twice the haploid number. This means it has two sets of chromosomes. On the other hand, a frog egg cell is haploid, meaning it only has one set of chromosomes. In frogs, both the somatic cell (2n) and the egg cell (n) have 26 chromosomes.

A human somatic cell typically contains 46 chromosomes organized into 23 pairs. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes (non-sex chromosomes) and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).
If it is a human (somatic/non-sex) cell, it should function as normal because this is the correct number of chromosomes.
A somatic or non-sex cell has 23 pairs or 46 total chromosomes. Sex cells or gametes have a total of 23 chromosomes.
A dog sperm cell typically contains 39 chromosomes, which is half the number of chromosomes found in a normal dog cell. When a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell, the resulting zygote will have a full set of 78 chromosomes.

The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
No, sex cells contain half the number of chromosomes that somatic (non-sex) cells contain. They are therefore haploidcells.
Non-disjunction occurs when chromosomes fail to separate properly during cell division, resulting in cells with an abnormal number of chromosomes. This can happen during both meiosis (resulting in gametes with too few or too many chromosomes) and mitosis (resulting in somatic cells with abnormal chromosome numbers). Non-disjunction can lead to genetic disorders such as Down syndrome.
Autosomes are non-sex chromosomes that are present in both males and females. They determine an individual's traits and characteristics, excluding those related to sex determination.
No, somatic (non-sex) cells have twice the number of chromosomes that sex cells have.
