Answer #1

Ans : 8 chromosomes

Reason : Skin cells undergoes Mitosis which creates identical cell with the same original chromosome number.(Here it is 16). But sex cells (sperm and egg) are generated through Meiosis which reduces the chromosome number to half which is half of 16, i.e 8 chromosome.
