A tribble's body cell typically contains 40 chromosomes.
Elephants have a diploid number of 56 chromosomes, which means their egg cells (ova) contain half of that number, or 28 chromosomes. This is typical for many species, where egg and sperm cells contain half the number of chromosomes found in somatic (body) cells.
Male reproductive cells (sperm) contain 23 chromosomes, while female reproductive cells (eggs) also contain 23 chromosomes. When these two cells combine during fertilization, the resulting zygote will have a total of 46 chromosomes - 23 from each parent.
The fertilized ovum, or zygote, contains 46 chromosomes. These come from the combination of 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell.
The answer is 40
Human somatic cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.

How many chromosomes does each new cell contain after mitosis if the original cell had 52 original cell chromosomes?
46 I think
23.

Bacteria contain one circular chromosome (and several tiny circular plasmids), some slime molds contain hundreds of thousands of linear chromosomes. Other organisms contain various numbers of chromosomes depending on the species.
The sperm cell contains 23 chromosomes.
No. DNA doesn't contain chromosomes. Chromosomes are DNA.
Human cells contain forty-six chromosomes each. An exception to this is gametes (oocytes and sperm), which contain twenty-three chromosomes each.
