Why do sperm and egg cells only carry 23 chromosomes?

• They can survive with only 23

• They will join and 23 + 23 = 46 chromosomes

• Their chromosomes are taken

• Because of evolution

• They are mostly the same

• Asexual is slow but Sexual is fast

• Everyone can use asexual but only some can use sexual

• be simpler overall
