An elephant sex cell (sperm or egg) contains 56 chromosomes. This is half the number of chromosomes found in a normal elephant cell, which typically has 112 chromosomes.
There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.
Body cells are diploid, which means they have two sets of chromosomes. Sex cells, both egg and sperm cells, are haploid, which means they have one set of chromosomes. So if the body cells have 56 chromosomes, the unfertilized egg would have 28 chromosomes.
Egg cells (also called ova) typically have 23 chromosomes, which is half the number of chromosomes found in other body cells. During fertilization, the egg cell combines with a sperm cell, resulting in a zygote with a full set of 46 chromosomes.
A chicken typically has 78 chromosomes in its somatic cells and 39 chromosomes in its sex cells (sperm or egg).
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.

There are 46 chromosomes in your body cells. The egg cells have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cells, so there are 23 chromosomes in the egg cells.
Non-somatic cells, such as germ cells (sperm and egg cells), have half the number of chromosomes compared to somatic cells. In humans, somatic cells have 46 chromosomes, while germ cells have 23 chromosomes.
All human cells , with the exception of sperm and egg cells, have the same number of chromosomes (46). Sperm and Egg cells have half that number.
Sex cells are haploid cells, meaning that they have half the cells of body cells. If a pig has 38 chromosomes, then in its egg cells there will be 19 chromosomes. Also in a male pig there will be 19 in its sperm cells.

Egg cells (also called ova) typically have 23 chromosomes, which is half the number of chromosomes found in other body cells. During fertilization, the egg cell combines with a sperm cell, resulting in a zygote with a full set of 46 chromosomes.
Gametes Have 23 Single Chromosomes, this means at fertilisation the pairs join together to make 23 pairs of Chromosomes. This is because Gametes are unspecialised cells so don't need all the Chromosomes that specialised cells have.
