In genetics
23 Pairs of chromosomes or 46 chromosomes.
Chromosomes are long strands of DNA that contain our genetic information. DNA is the molecule that makes up chromosomes, and it is organized into genes on the chromosomes. Each cell in our body contains a set of chromosomes that help determine our traits and characteristics.
Genes
Chromosomes contain the genes of an organism which are what express traits and are passed on to offspring
Each child inherits a set of chromosomes from their parents, with half coming from the mother and half from the father. These chromosomes contain genetic information in the form of DNA, which determines various traits and characteristics. In humans, there are typically 46 chromosomes, arranged in 23 pairs. This genetic inheritance plays a crucial role in shaping an individual's physical appearance, health, and many other traits.
Homologous Chromosomes.
Chromosomes are structures composed of DNA and proteins that are found in the nucleus of cells. DNA is coiled around proteins called histones to form chromatin, which further condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Chromosomes contain the genetic information in the form of DNA that determines an organism's traits.

homolegous chromosomes
Each parent donated 23 chromosomes in sexual reproduction, which combine to form 46 chromosomes in the offspring. This genetic material determines various inherited traits and characteristics of the offspring.

Homologous chromosomes carry genes for the same traits at corresponding loci. They are similar in size and shape and are inherited from each parent.
Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes that have genes for the same traits arranged in the same order. They are inherited from each parent and are involved in genetic variation during reproduction.
The singular form of chromosomes is a chromatid.
Genes
Chromosomes
Genes are found on chromosomes and they control traits by providing instructions for the production of proteins which determine various characteristics in an organism. Each gene carries specific information that influences an individual's physical and biological traits.
