46chromosomes

There are 23 pairs of chromosomes in a human body cell. One set of 23 came from each parent.

Because our body cells contain two sets of chromosomes, the cells are called diploid.

In humans, as in most animals, the only haploid cells (i.e. having only one set of chromosomes) are the gametes and the cells (secondary spermatocytes and secondary oocytes) that divide (by meiosis II) to form them.
