    46

    Explanation:

    In a human egg or sperm, there are 23 chromosomes, one of which is an X or Y. A human egg is haploid (has 23 chromosomes) and a sperm is haploid (has 23 chromosomes). Upon fertilization, the new baby now has the 'correct' human number of 46 chromosomes in each of its somatic cells.

    This is because an offspring inherits 23 from its mother and 23 from its father.
