Twenty-three chromosomes are in a human egg cell. 22 are autosomes, the other is an X chromosome.
A human egg cell, also known as an ovum, contains 23 chromosomes. It is a haploid cell, meaning it has half the number of chromosomes compared to other human cells.
The human egg or sperm cell is haploid and contains 23 chromosomes. After fertilization (egg and sperm fusion), the zygote will have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).
One. A cell cannot consist of multiple things. It is a complete unit.
Eggs and sperms are gametes. They are haploid. Haploid means that they have half the regular number of chromosomes. This works really well because an egg and a sperm join together to begin a new organism which will then have the entire diploid number of chromosomes. A human body cell would have 46 chromosomes. Since a human egg cell is a reproductive cell (sex cell), it would contain only half the number of chromosomes as a body cell. Thus, a human egg cell would have 23 chromosomes. A sex cell has half the number of chromosomes for a good reason. When two sex cells reproduce, they combine to form double the number of chromosomes. So when two cells with 23 chromosomes each reproduce, the offspring would have 46 chromosomes. To keep humans at 46 chromosomes per cell, sex cells are produced through meiosis, which is a process that creates cells with half the number of chromosomes.
Twenty-three chromosomes are in a cell that is formed from a sperm and egg cell.

A human egg cell, also known as an ovum, contains 23 chromosomes. It is a haploid cell, meaning it has half the number of chromosomes compared to other human cells.
The human egg or sperm cell is haploid and contains 23 chromosomes. After fertilization (egg and sperm fusion), the zygote will have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).
There are 23 chromosomes in each the sperm and the egg. When they fuse, the resulting embryo will have 46 chromosomes.
There are 23 chromosomes in a human egg or sperm cell, which is the haploid number. During fertilization, when the egg and sperm combine, they form a zygote with the full complement of 46 chromosomes, known as the diploid number.
All human gametes (sex cells), which means egg cells and sperm cells, have 23 chromosomes. When the sperm fertilises the egg, the 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and the 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell join to make cells with 46 chromosomes. In summary, all cells in the human body have 46 chromosomes, except sperm cells and egg cells, which have 23.
A human egg/sperm cell has 23 chromosomes. When the sperm and egg fuse together,, the zygote (fertilised egg) contains 46 chromosomes. Scientists call this the diploid number, with the sperm/egg having a haploid number of chromosomes. This number varies between species.
23. There are 46 chromosomes in a human, half from the egg and half from the sperm.
yes it has 23 cells.
