The only place you would be able to find a cell with 23 chromosomes would be in the sex cells (sperm cells of egg cells). There are 46 chromosomes in the human body. This is because when a sperm cell fertilises the egg cell, both with 23 single chromosomes, they join to make 46.

How Many Unpaired chromosomes are there in this organisms somatic cells?

In humans, there are 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females or XY in males) in somatic cells. Therefore, there are 0 unpaired chromosomes in a normal human somatic cell.


Which human cells never have 23 pairs of chromosomes?

Human sex cells which only have a haploid number of chromosomes. 23 total chromosomes. Red blood cells have no chromosomes also.


How many chromosomes are in a human cell?

Body cells have "pairs" of chromosomes while sex cells have only single sets of chromosomes. The human body cells have 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes for a total of 23 pairs or 46 chromosomes.But sex cells (sperm or ovum, known as gametes or diploid cells) contain only 23 chromosomes (unpaired), when they meet (forming a Zygote), the 23 from each male and female gamete form a cell containing 46 chromosomes to make a Haploid cell.Normal body cells (known as a haploid cells) contain 46 chromosomes (or 23 pairs of chromosomes).There are genetic diseases/disorders such as Down's syndrome that occasionally have one more.Normally, 46. Unless aneuploidy occurs.46 Chromosomes in human body


Has how many chromosomes withn the egg cells?

All human gametes (sex cells), which means egg cells and sperm cells, have 23 chromosomes. When the sperm fertilises the egg, the 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and the 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell join to make cells with 46 chromosomes. In summary, all cells in the human body have 46 chromosomes, except sperm cells and egg cells, which have 23.


Did chromosomes are contained within brain cell sperm cell and blood cell?

Chromosomes are contained in the nuclei of cells, which includes brain cells, sperm cells, and blood cells. Each human cell typically contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, except for sex cells (sperm and egg) which only have 23 single chromosomes.

What cell has all the chromosomes and DNA?

Every cell has all the chromosomes (23 pairs) apart from sex cells -spermatozoa and ovum. These cells are termed haploid and have an unpaired 23 chromosomes.


How Many Unpaired chromosomes are there in this organisms somatic cells?

What is the organ system Meisosis accures in?

Reproductive system. Meiosis is the formation of gametes which unlike regular cells have 23 unpaired chromosomes compared to regular cells which have 23 paired chromosomes or 46 total chromosomes, in humans that is.

A sperm cell contains 23 [unpaired] chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are in a sperm Cell?

Do all cells in your body have 23pair of chromosomes?

No. The sex cells have only one set of 23 chromosomes.


How are haploid daughter cells different from the parent cell?

The parent cell will be diploid and contain paired chromosomes. The haploid cell will contain only one copy of each chromosome. In humans for example there are 23 pairs of chromosomes. In a somatic cell, which is diploid, the 23 pairs are present. In a gamete (sperm or egg cell), which is haploid there are only 23 chromosomes - unpaired. This is so that when the sperm and egg meet at fertilisation there are 46 chromosomes - 23 pairs - the correct number for the organism.


How are sex cells similar?

They bouth only have 23 chromosomes.


How is the nucleus of the sperm cell different to the nucleus in the body cell?

a gamete nucleus has only half the number of chromosomes in it than a regular body cell. in humans a regular body cell has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) in the nucleus, but a gamete ie sperm or egg cell has only 23 chromosomes, which are all unpaired. during fertilization the 23 chromosomes from a sperm and the 23 from the egg cell combine and pair up.
