what do you mean by types???? Chromosomes are the organized form of DNA found in cells. Chromosomes contain one very long, continuous piece of DNA, which contains many genes, regulatory elements and other intervening nucleotide sequences. A broader definition of "chromosome" also includes the DNA-bound proteins which serve to package and manage the DNA. The word chromosome comes from the Greek χρῶμα (chroma, color) and σῶμα (soma, body) due to their property of being stained very strongly with vital and supravital dyes. Chromosomes vary extensively between different organisms. The DNA molecule may be circular or linear, and can contain anything from tens of kilobase pairs to hundreds of megabase pairs. Typically eukaryotic cells (cells with nuclei) have large linear chromosomes and prokaryotic cells (cells without nuclei) smaller circular chromosomes, although there are many exceptions to this rule. Furthermore, cells may contain more than one type of chromosome; for example mitochondria in most eukaryotes and chloroplasts in plants have their own small chromosome in addition to the nuclear chromosomes. In eukaryotes nuclear chromosomes are packaged by proteins into a condensed structure called chromatin. This allows the massively-long DNA molecules to fit into the cell nucleus. The structure of chromatin varies through the cell cycle, and is responsible for the organisation of chromosomes into the classic four-arm structure during mitosis and meiosis. "Chromosome" is a rather loosely defined term. In prokaryotes, a small circular DNA molecule may be called either a plasmid or a small chromosome. These small circular genomes are also found in mitochondria, and chloroplasts, reflecting their bacterial origins. The simplest chromosomes are found in viruses: these DNA or RNA molecules are short linear or circular chromosomes that often lack any structural proteins.

The two type of chromosomes found in human cells are autosomes and allosomes. Autosomes contain hereditary information whereas allosomes represent human sex chromosomes (X and Y pairs).
Autosomes and sex chromosomes. There are 44 autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes in each body cell.
Haploids and Polyploids are the two types of chromosomes found in the cells of an organism.

Like animals, different plants have different chromosome counts - they don't all have the same number of chromosomes.A plant cell have 24 chromosomes, that have been proved in univen laboratoryit is different in different plants. for example haplopappus has 4 chromosomes and allium cepa has 16 chromosomes
the two types of chromatins are euchromatin and heterochromatin.They are different in that heterochromatin is coiled while euchromatin is not coiled.It is this coiling that makes heterochromatin inactive and therefore less in the nucleus when the nucleus is actively involved in protein synthesis.On the other hand,euchromatin is active because its DNA is exposed. When viewed under a microscope,the two chromatins have different stains.
Depends on what species is in questions - different species have different numbers of chromosomes in gametes.

Cells are not found in chromosomes. Chromosomes are found in cells.

4 types
Any living thing has chromosomes; different species have different amounts!
That depends on the organism you're looking at. In humans, there are 46 chromosomes per normal somatic cell. 46 chromosomes = 22 homolog pairs + 2 sex chromosomes (XX in women or XY in men)
4 basic types of chromosomes , metacentric , submetacentric , acrocentric and telocentric .
The number of chromosomes in a organism can vary. Humans have 46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs.
Depends on what species is in questions - different species have different numbers of chromosomes in gametes.
in eukaryotic chromosomes it produces DNA to live and in prokaryotic chromosomes it is nothing but bacteria.
Well, every species is different as different species have different numbers of chromosomes. So it would depend on the organism. But, if you are asking about humans. Humans have 46 chromosomes. So a human sperm would have 23 chromosomes.
