A human diploid cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes.
26
every human have 46 chromosomes haploid(23)+haploid(23)=46 chromosomes
There are 38 chromosomes in a cat's diploid cell. Diploid cells always have an even number of chromosomes because they exist in pairs.
will assume that you mean human cells. Somatic cells are diploid (2n), containing two sets of chromosomes, one of paternal, one of maternal origin. Gametes, on the other hand, are haploid (n), with a single set of chromosomes, ie. half as many as the somatic cell. Now, the haploid chromosome number (n) is characteristic of the species, and in humans this number happens to be 23. Therefore a human gamete has 23 chromosomes, and a human somatic cell 23 pairs, or 46 chromosomes.
A diploid cell contains two sets of homologous chromosomes, with one chromosome from each parent forming each pair. Therefore, there are typically 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes in a diploid human cell, totaling 46 chromosomes.
The number of chromosomes in a mature somatic cell depends on the species, but it is the diploid number (2X). In a human somatic cell, that number is 46.
Each daughter cell produced by meiosis will have half the number of chromosomes as the original diploid cell. So, if a diploid cell contains 28 chromosomes, each daughter cell will have 14 chromosomes after meiosis.
In a gamete (sex) cell, there are 23 chromosomes. A gamete is a haploid, or n, whereas a somatic (normal) cell is a diploid, or 2n, and has 46 chromosomes.
A human diploid cell contains 46 chromosomes, organized in 23 pairs. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males).
A diploid cell has two sets of chromosomes, while a haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes. This means that the number of chromosomes in a diploid cell is double that of a haploid cell.
The domestic dog, Canis lupus familiaris has a diploid number of 78 chromosomes.
