To determine : The number of chromosomes in the HeLa cell.  Concept introduction: HeLa cell is the oldest and commonly used cell line that was derived from the cervical cancer cells. HeLa cells differ from the normal cells in many ways. These cells have the ability to contaminate other cell lines. These cells have furthered the understanding of cancer, HIV and the cells in general. It is still used widely to grow viruses and to test anti-tumor medicines.
