Detailed explanation-1: -In humans, each cell normally contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46.

Detailed explanation-2: -A diploid cell has two complete sets of chromosomes. Most cells in humans are diploid, comprising 23 chromosome pairs, so 46 chromosomes in total. This is 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-3: -A cell containing two copies of each chromosome is referred to as a ‘diploid cell’; human somatic cells are diploid: they contain 46 chromosomes, 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Humans typically have 23 pairs of chromosomes, or 46 chromosomes in total. Chromosomes are made up of long strands of DNA, which contain all the body’s genes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Human body cells (somatic cells) have 46 chromosomes. A somatic cell contains two matched sets of chromosomes, a configuration known as diploid.
