Answer:

30*2= 60 chromosomes

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, a body (somatic) cell of an organism contains twice the number of chromosomes as a sperm cell, so you would find 60 chromosomes in one body (somatic) cell of the organism.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In one body (somatic) cell of the organism, you would find 46 chromosomes. This is because the sperm cell only contains the haploid amount of chromosomes. The body (somatic) cells contain the diploid amount of chromosomes, which is twice the haploid amount. So, 46 chromosomes would be found in one body (somatic) cell of the organism.
