Understand that a human diploid cell contains chromosomes in pairs, where one chromosome of each pair comes from the mother and the other from the father.
Recall that the total number of chromosomes in a human diploid cell is 46.
Since chromosomes are paired, divide the total number of chromosomes by 2 to find the number of pairs.
Use the formula: \(\text{Number of pairs} = \frac{\text{Total chromosomes}}{2}\).
Calculate \(\frac{46}{2}\) to find the number of chromosome pairs in a human diploid cell.
