Homologous chromosomes in a diploid cell come from male and female parents during fertilization. Pairing of these chromosomes takes place during meiosis to interchange the genetic material to facilitate evolution among those organisms.

What is the difference between a haploid cell and diploid cell?
A diploid cell differs from haploid is that the diploid cell has homologous chromosomes as when the haploid cell doesn't have homologous chromosomes.
What cell has homologous chromosomes?
A somatic cell (body cell) is a cell that would have homologous chromosomes.
Chromosomes normally occur as homologous pairs in?
Chromosomes normally occur as homologous pairs in a diploid cell. These refers to matching pairs of chromosomes which are found in the cell.
What are the matching pairs of chromosomes in the diploid cell called?
They are called homologous chromosomes (but can also be referred to as homologues or homologs).
