Human Gametes Contain 23 Chromosomes Each

Question

Human gametes contain 23 chromosomes each.

Accepted Answer

It is true that human gametes contain 23 chromosomes each. This is because during meiosis, the chromosomes in a diploid cell (with 46 chromosomes) are separated into two haploid cells (each with 23 chromosomes) that will eventually become the egg or sperm cells.
