There are 46 chromosomes per cell, with 22 pairs and an XX pair for females or an XY pair for males.
Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes. This includes 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes.
Chromosome pairs undergo a process called meiosis during which they are divided. One of the pairs, known as the sex chromosomes, determines the sex of an individual. In humans, females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome. These sex chromosomes are distributed randomly to sex cells during meiosis, resulting in the formation of eggs (in females) and sperm (in males) with varying combinations of sex chromosomes.

No. The human cell has 23 chromosome pairs (total 46 chromosomes). Each chromosome has many genes.
autosomal chromosomes
In humans, the chromosome pairs numbering 1 through 22 are called autosomes or sometimes somatic chromosomes.

Many scientists think the 24th chromosome fused together and that is why humans have 23.

autosomal
Chromosomes 1 through 22 are called autosomes, and they contain the majority of an individual's genetic information. These chromosomes are responsible for traits such as hair color, eye color, and other physical characteristics.
