how many chromosomes would be present in a haploid cell?
8496
In humans, gametes are haploid cells that contain 23 chromosomes, each of which a one of a chromosome pair that exists in diplod cells. The number of chromosomes in a single set is represented as n, which is also called the haploid number.

Human cells that contain one set of 23 chromosomes are called gametes, or sex cells; these eggs and sperm are designated n, or haploid. The matched pairs of chromosomes in a diploid organism are called homologous chromosomes.

Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes, including 22 homologous pairs and one pair of nonhomologous sex chromosomes. This is the 2n, or diploid, condition. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes, one each of 23 unique chromosomes.

Explanation: Haploid means half of the normal. A normal human cell has 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs of chromosomes. So a sex or germ cell has 23 chromosomes none of them paired.

Reason for correct answer: The chromosome number present in the haploid cells of dog will be 39 because during the meiosis I process, the homologous pairs separate. So, 78 chromosomes present in the diploid cells will assemble at the equator of the cell.

"Haploid" refers to any cell that has 23 chromosomes (half of the total 46). "Gametes" are specifically sex cells that have 23 chromosomes. "Diploid" refers to any cell that has all 46 chromosomes. "Zygote" is the result of two gamete (haploid) cells fusing, and becoming a diploid cell.

All normal diploid individuals have some small fraction of cells that display polyploidy. Human diploid cells have 46 chromosomes (the somatic number, 2n) and human haploid gametes (egg and sperm) have 23 chromosomes (n).

All body cells expect for the reproductive cells. How many chromosomes do human somatic cells contain? 46 chromosomes composed of two sets of 23 chromosomes (2n; diploid).

Reproductive cells: The eggs and sperm are the reproductive cells. Each mature reproductive cell is haploid in that it has a single set of 23 chromosomes containing half the usual DNA amount.

*except sperm cells and egg cells in the ovaries which are "haploid" and have 23 chromosomes (with the 23rd being an X in the eggs, and either an X or a Y in the sperm), and not 46 "diploid" like other cells.

Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes consisting of two sets of 22 homologous chromosomes and a pair of nonhomologous sex chromosomes. This is the 2n, or diploid, state. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes or one complete set of chromosomes.

Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes consisting of two sets of 22 homologous chromosomes and a pair of nonhomologous sex chromosomes. This is the 2n, or diploid, state. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes or one complete set of chromosomes. This is the n, or haploid, state.

Diploid cells are two full sets of chromosomes while haploid cells are one full set of chromosomes.

Human gametes have 23 chromosomes or one complete set of chromosomes. This is the n, or haploid, state.

Because they have only half the total chromosomes in a somatic cell, they are termed haploid (n). In a human egg or sperm, there are 23 chromosomes, one of which is an X or Y.

Germ cells have only half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell   one of each pair. The number of chromosomes is reduced from 46 (23 pairs) to 23 during the process of meiosis.
