In the C and C++ programming languages, #pragma once is a non-standard but widely supported preprocessor directive designed to cause the current source file to be included only once in a single compilation.
Best Answer: In humans, you would find 23 chromosomes in a sperm cell; 23 chromosomes in an egg cell; and 46 chromosomes in a white blood cell. All human body cells contain 46 chromosomes (two sets of 23 chromosomes). Only the gametes (i.e., the sperm & eggs) contain 23 chromosomes (one set of 23 chromosomes) because two gametes combine to form a new person with 46 chromosomes in his body cells. Body cells grow and reproduce by the process of mitosis.
In a diploid state the haploid number is doubled. Thus, haploidy occurs during gamete formation. In particular, a human germ cell (a sperm or an egg cell) is haploid, which means it contains only one of each of the 23 chromosomes of the human genome, or it only has half the diploid (2n) number of a human somatic cell (which is 46). Gametes being haploid are essential particularly during fertilization.
