No. Stem cells are diploid just like any other body cell.
46 23 from each parent...unless there is a mutation. Hi sorry to but in, but i was just wondering. If a human zygote contains 46 chromosomes and then total chromosomes they have is 46. Then if a mouse has 40 chromosomes would it's zygote be 40 as well? I have Biology homework and i was just wondering. Thanks!
The zygote of a crayfish with a diploid number of 112 chromosomes would contain 56 chromosomes. This is because the zygote receives one copy of each chromosome from each parent, resulting in half the number of chromosomes of the diploid number.
The answer is 40
No, both the egg and sperm have a haploid chromosome number, which means they each contain half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells. When they combine during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote with the full complement of chromosomes.
The four daughter cells resulting from meiosis are genetically unique and have half the number of chromosomes as the original zygote. They are also haploid, meaning they contain one set of chromosomes.

If gametes were diploid, the zygote would contain double the number of chromosomes found in a typical diploid zygote. So, if a human diploid cell normally has 46 chromosomes, a diploid gamete would have 46 chromosomes as well, resulting in a zygote with 92 chromosomes.
The zygote would have 24 chromosomes, as it inherits half of its chromosomes from each parent. So, if each parent's gamete has 12 chromosomes, the zygote would receive 12 chromosomes from the egg and 12 chromosomes from the sperm, resulting in a total of 24 chromosomes.
46 I think

A zygote has twice the amount of chromosomes as a gamete.
Since the gametes contain one half the number, the zygote will have to have the full number of 40.

well if human chromosomes number 21 does not separate during fertilization the baby will be with down syndrome. at fertilization of the egg with a normal sperm the zygote contain three chromosome number 21 (trizomic 21) hence the zygote contain 47 chromosome instead of 46.
diploid is what the total number of chromosomes in an organism is
