A human egg contains 1/2 the chromosomes found in a body cell?

it is true

True.

In the case of humans, this means that parent cells have two chromosomes and gametes have one. All of the gametes in the mother's eggs possess X chromosomes. The father's sperm contains about half X and half Y chromosomes. Germ cells have only half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell one of each pair - and are termed haploid (n). In a human egg or sperm, there are 23 chromosomes, one of which is an X or Y.
