All cells in the human body - with the exception of the gametes (sex cells) contain 23 pairs of chromosomes; therefore 46 chromosomes in total. In the gametes (ova for women; sperm for men), each cell has only 23 single chromosomes. Thereby allowing the ova from mom containing 23 singles and the sperms from dad containing 23 singles to combine together to make a unique new formation of 23 pairs in a new life.
