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.


Why do cells need to copy their chromosomes before they divide into two daughter cells?

They copy their chromosomes so that when they do divide into two different cells each one will have its own set of chromosomes and it couldn't be copied and transferred after divison occured


How do the numbers of chromosomes in cells compare with the number of chromosomes in sex cells?

Cells typically have two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent, while sex cells (sperm and egg cells) only have one set of chromosomes. This means that cells have a diploid number of chromosomes, while sex cells have a haploid number of chromosomes.
