Humans have 22 pairs of homologous non-sex chromosomes (called autosomes), and one pair of sex chromosomes, making a total of 46 chromosomes in a genetically normal human.
Each member of a pair is inherited from one of the two parents. In addition to the 22 pairs of homologous autosomes, female humans have a homologous pair of sex chromosomes (two Xs),
while males have an X and a Y chromosome.
Haploid cells contain one copy of each chromosome. This means they have half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells, which have two copies of each chromosome.
No. The human cell has 23 chromosome pairs (total 46 chromosomes). Each chromosome has many genes.
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.
After completing meiosis II, human sex cells (gametes) have a total of 23 chromosomes. This is because meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in haploid cells, which contain one set of chromosomes. In humans, the diploid number is 46, so each gamete ends up with 23 chromosomes.
The number of genes varies. Most of any chromosome consists of non-coding DNA, which does not contain any genes. Each chromosome has many chromatins. One gene consists of many chromatins. Therefore, one chromosome could have many genes.

Haploid cells contain one copy of each chromosome. This means they have half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells, which have two copies of each chromosome.
Gametic [haploid] Cells are chromosome number n - which involves 23 individual chromosomes. Somatic [or diploid] Cells are chromosome number 2n - which involves 23 pairs of chromosomes. Mitotic Cells are 4n.
No. The human cell has 23 chromosome pairs (total 46 chromosomes). Each chromosome has many genes.
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.

Human somatic cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
The human body has an approximate number of ten trillion cells.
