How many chromosomes are in human skin cells?

All human cells exept for sperm and egg cells have 46 chromosomes. 23 from your mother and 23 from your father.

How many chromosomes are in human skin cells?
The same as in all other somatic cells, 46.

Reply:Human cells have 46 chromosomes. A human body cell, such as those that make up skin, kidney tissue, heart tissue and blood vessels all contain 46 chromosomes. The chromosomes are arranged in pairs, so that each cell has 23 pairs. In females, each of the pairs are identical but in males, one pair, the sex chromosomes are different. While women have two X chromosomes, men have and X chromosome and a Y chromosome
