Spermatids are haploid cells, meaning they contain one set of chromosomes. In humans, this set consists of 23 chromosomes, which are derived from the original diploid spermatogonium that undergoes meiosis. Thus, each spermatid has 23 chromosomes, representing half the genetic material needed for fertilization.

What Has the same number of chromosome sets as a germ cell?

A haploid germ cell has the same number of chromosome sets as a gamete, which is half the number of chromosome sets found in a somatic cell. This enables the gametes to fuse during fertilization to restore the diploid number of chromosomes in the zygote.


Why is a human cell containing 22 autosomes and a y chromosome a sperm?

Human somatic (body) cells contain two sets of 23 chromosomes. Human gametes (sperm and egg cells) contain one set of 23 chromomes -- 22 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome. Only a sperm cell can carry a y chromosome. A sperm cell can also carry an x chromosome. The ovum can carry only an x chromosome, never a y chromosome. So a cell containing 22 autosomes and a y chromosome must be a sperm cell.
