Answer 1

A) sex cell with 23 chromosomes: 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome

Answer 2

a) sex cell with 23 chromosomes: 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome

Step-by-step explanation:

Sex cells are the gametes and are products of meiosis. These cells have haploid chromosome number. Human sex cells are sperms and egg which serve as male and female gamete respectively. Human sex cells have n = 23 chromosomes. Out of total 23 chromosomes, 22 chromosomes are autosomes while one is the sex chromosome (either X or Y chromosome). Deviation from this pattern can cause any genetic disorder.
