Every child receives 2 sets of 23 from his/her parents. One set from mom and one from dad ~ a 50/50 split, equaling a total of 46. It is the dad who will provide the chromosome that determines sex of the child.
And when one or more less, or one or more too many are passed on, then disorders occur. (Like Mongloidism, or Down syndrome)
Each parent sex cell gives 23 chromosomes to their offspring in humans
4 because the parent cell has four chromosomes arranged in 2 pairs. Each offspring has 4 chromosomes, one pair from each parent.
23 chromosomes are given from each parent.
Offspring inherit one set of chromosomes from each parent, resulting in pairs of homologous chromosomes. In humans, for example, there are 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes, totaling 46 chromosomes. Thus, an offspring would have 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes, one from each parent.
When a parent is going to have an offspring the offspring only gets half a chromosome from each parent, they combine to make one chromosome then that chromosome gets copied until there are 23 pairs of chromosome's. This is how you get your features.

how many (number of chromosomes are passed from parent to offspring in asexual reproduction
each parent gives half of its chromosomes, so the offspring will have full amount of chromosomes, two halves.
The diploid number of chromosomes in an offspring is the sum of the chromosomes contributed by each parent. In humans, for example, each parent contributes 23 chromosomes, leading to a total diploid number of 46 chromosomes in the offspring. This process occurs during sexual reproduction, where gametes (sperm and egg) fuse to restore the diploid state. The specific diploid number can vary by species, but it always reflects the combined contributions from both parents.
In asexual reproduction, a single parent cell gives rise to offspring without the involvement of gametes. The number of chromosomes involved in asexual reproduction is typically the same as the parent cell, resulting in genetically identical offspring. For example, in mitosis, the daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
The offspring will have 54 chromosomes, which is the average of the parents' total number of chromosomes (46 + 62 = 108, average = 108/2 = 54).
In sexual reproduction, each parent contributes half of their genes to the offspring. This results in the offspring inheriting equal amounts of genetic information from both the mother and the father.
