46
23 from each parent...unless there is a mutation. Hi sorry to but in, but i was just wondering. If a human zygote contains 46 chromosomes and then total chromosomes they have is 46. Then if a mouse has 40 chromosomes would it's zygote be 40 as well? I have Biology homework and i was just wondering. Thanks!
A normal human diploid zygote contains a full set of 46 chromosomes. A zygote refers to the initial cell that is formed when two gamete cells join together through sexual reproduction.
The human egg or sperm cell is haploid and contains 23 chromosomes. After fertilization (egg and sperm fusion), the zygote will have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).
A human zygote typically contains one pair of sex chromosomes, resulting in a total of 46 chromosomes. This pair determines the individual's sex: females have two X chromosomes (XX), and males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY).
A zygote is a fertilized egg cell, so it is diploid and thus has a full set of DNA. If the adult has 30 pairs of chromosomes, the zygote would have 30 pairs. If there are 30 chromosomes, then the zygote will have 60 (30 from the mother and 30 from the father). It comes down to whether you meant individual chromosomes or pairs of chromosomes.
A human reproductive cell, also known as a gamete, carries 23 chromosomes. This is half the number of chromosomes found in a regular human cell, which has 46 chromosomes. When a sperm and egg combine during fertilization, they form a zygote with 46 chromosomesβ23 from the mother and 23 from the father.

A zygote is a cell that is the result of the fusion of an egg and a sperm. It has a total of 46 chromosomes in a genetically normal human.

The human egg or sperm cell is haploid and contains 23 chromosomes. After fertilization (egg and sperm fusion), the zygote will have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).
Human cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes, giving a total of 46 per cell.
The gametes must have half as many chromosomes as normal body cells because they unite to form a zygote, which is the first body cell of the new organism. For example, human body cells have 46 chromosomes and human gametes (sperm and egg cells) have 23 chromosomes. When the sperm fertilizes the egg, the zygote will have 46 chromosomes, and is the first body cell of the new human.
Zygote=2 Gamate=1
If gametes were diploid, the zygote would contain double the number of chromosomes found in a typical diploid zygote. So, if a human diploid cell normally has 46 chromosomes, a diploid gamete would have 46 chromosomes as well, resulting in a zygote with 92 chromosomes.
8 chromosomes

46 I think
