* Diploid Number: The diploid number represents the total number of chromosomes in a normal body cell (like a liver cell). In this case, the diploid number is 52.

* Haploid Number: Egg cells (and sperm cells) are called gametes. They are haploid, meaning they have half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell.

* Calculation: To find the number of chromosomes in an egg cell, divide the diploid number by 2: 52 / 2 = 26

Therefore, there are 26 chromosomes in the egg of this organism.
