This depends on the number of chromosomes the species has, and whether or not they have sex chromosomes. Autosomes are non-sex chromosomes, and somatic cells are cells with the full complement of chromosomes, i.e, are not gametes. Let's consider humans as our example. A human somatic cell carries a total of 46 chromosomes (23 homologous pairs). One pair of these are the sex chromosomes (an XX pair for females and an XY pair for males). That leaves 22 pairs of automes, for a total of 44.
A neuron typically has 22 pairs of autosomes in humans, for a total of 44 autosomes. Autosomes are chromosomes that are not involved in determining an individual's sex.

Each ovum contains 22 autosomes, which are the non-sex chromosomes. This is because during oogenesis, the egg cell undergoes a process called meiosis to divide the chromosomes evenly into four daughter cells, resulting in one mature ovum with half the number of chromosomes.
23 chromosomes (22 autosomes + Y chromososm or X chromosomes)
Autosomes are non-sex chromosomes found in the nucleus of a cell, while sex cells (sperm and egg cells) are specialized cells involved in sexual reproduction that carry half the number of chromosomes as normal cells. Autosomes are responsible for determining an individual's traits and characteristics, whereas sex cells determine the genetic sex of an individual.
A neuron typically has 22 pairs of autosomes in humans, for a total of 44 autosomes. Autosomes are chromosomes that are not involved in determining an individual's sex.
Fruit flies have 3 pairs of autosomes, a total of 6 autosomes. They also have 1 pair of sex chromosomes.

A normal mouse gamete would have 19 autosomes.
Humans have 22 pairs of autosomes, which make up 44 total autosomes in each cell of the body. These autosomes are responsible for carrying the majority of an individual's genetic information, excluding the sex chromosomes.

There are 44 autosomes present in a normal human cell, which are the non-sex chromosomes. Each parent contributes 22 autosomes to their offspring, resulting in a total of 44 autosomes in diploid cells.
Each ovum contains 22 autosomes, which are the non-sex chromosomes. This is because during oogenesis, the egg cell undergoes a process called meiosis to divide the chromosomes evenly into four daughter cells, resulting in one mature ovum with half the number of chromosomes.

The process that produces autosomes is meiosis. Meiosis is the type of cell division that results in the formation of gametes (sperm and egg cells) and involves two rounds of division, resulting in four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Autosomes are chromosomes that are not involved in determining an individual's sex.
