It is very difficult to give a precise answer and it depends on how large the body is but a number in the region of 37 trillion would be reasonable.

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.
Where in the human body are cells located that have a large number of mitochondria?
Cells in the human body that have a large number of mitochondria are typically found in tissues that require a lot of energy, such as muscle cells and liver cells.
How do gametes differ from body cells?
Gametes are reproductive cells that have half the number of chromosomes as body cells. Body cells, also known as somatic cells, have a full set of chromosomes. Gametes are involved in sexual reproduction, while body cells are involved in growth and maintenance of the body.
How does the number of chromosomes in gametes of an organism that reproduces sexually differ from the numbers of chromosomes in other cells?
Unlike somatic (body) cells, gametes have two time the number of chromosomes as body cells. Gametes (2n). Body cells (n). For example, human 46 chromosomes in gamete cells but half of that (23) in body cells.
If the body cells have 12 chromosomes how many will the sex cell have?
Sex cells have half the number of chromosomes as body cells, so if the body cells have 12 chromosomes, the sex cells will have 6 chromosomes. This reduction occurs through the process of meiosis, where the chromosome number is halved to ensure proper genetic information is passed on during sexual reproduction.
What do body cells have that sex cells don't?
Body cells or somatic cells have a full number of chromosomes while sex cells have one half the number.
Why is it important that sex cells have exactly the number of chromosomes as the body cells?
The DO NOT "have exactly the number of chromosomes as the body cells", they have 1/2 that number. This is so that when two sex cells come together to form an embryo, the cells of that embryo have exactly the same number of chromosomes as the body cells of the two parents and not twice that number.
What happened to the number of cells in a boys body when he grew?
As you grow, the number of cells in your body increases. Your body is also always replacing cells. Cells are always dying and new cells are always being made.
How do the number of chromosomes in a female scorpion's egg cells compare with the number in her body (somatic) cells?
There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.
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.
In body cells the number of gametes are?
In body cells, the number of gametes is typically half the number of chromosomes found in body cells. This reduction occurs during meiosis, where a diploid cell divides to form haploid gametes with half the number of chromosomes.
Do Body cells only have half the total number of chromosomes?
All body cells contain a total number of 46 chromosomes except sex cells (the egg and the sperm) which have half the number of chromosomes (23) no.... body cells or somatic cells have 46 chromosomes which is the diploid chromosome number of homo sapiens... gametes or sex cells have 23 chromosomes which is the haploid chromosome number...
How is the haploid chromosome number?
The haploid chromosome number is half the chromosome number of the body cells. For example, in humans, body cells have 46 chromosomes. In human haploid cells (sex cells), there are 23 chromosomes.
How does the number of chromosomes in a grasshoppers body cell compare to the number in its sex cell?
sex cells(gametes) are haploid in nature as compared to body cells(somatic cells) thus the number of chromosomes in a sex cell of a grasshopper is half the number of chromosomes in a body cell
Where in the human body are cells located that have a large number of mitochondria?
Cells in the human body that have a large number of mitochondria are typically found in tissues that require a lot of energy, such as muscle cells and liver cells.
What is cells body?
There is no accurate count on the number of cells in the human body. The accepted estimate is about 50 trillion.
Are adult cells and somatic cells the same?
Adult cells could refer to any cell in the adult body. Somatic cells however, are body cells (cells that have diploid number of chromosomes), different from germ cells (containing haploid number of chromosomes)
