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.
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.
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.
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.
An ootid is a haploid cell, which means that it contains half the number of chromosomes as the original diploid cell. In a human, an ootid would have 23 chromosomes.
The domestic dog, Canis lupus familiaris has a diploid number of 78 chromosomes.
56 chromosomes

There are 22 pairs of autosomes in a human somatic cell.
