Human somatic cells have 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes?
Answer: *Yes  , human somatic cells have 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes

The human genome consists of 46 (2n*(22+1) ) chromosomes.

Most of our cells are somatic and diploid (2n), they have two homolgous chromosoms (called homologs, one "father" &amp; "mother") these cells multiply by mitosis. 

Reproductiv cells or gonosomal cells, (gametes; Sperm and eggcell(ovum)) are the product of meiosis ( a part of gametogenesis ) . These cells are haploid (1n), they only have one set of chromosomes (1n * (22+1)) which is a combination of "fater&amp;mother". When 2 gametes  combine a diploid zygote is formed.

In both cases (Mei- and Mitosis) chromosome (pair (2n)oder single(1n)) number 1 -22 are called autosome , while

Chormosome number 23 is an allosome (sex chromosome), either Y (male) or X (female).

Since the gametes are haploid (1n) they have only 1 single allosome, egg cell always X , and  sperm cell either X or Y.

If the allosome (the 23 chormosome pair) of an human is hemizygot ( X–Y ), he is genetically male. Is the allosome pair X-X
,homozygot the person is genetically female.

Somatic cells can have therefore 22  pairs of homologous chromosomes the 22 autosomes. The allosome pair of chromosomes is not considert homologous but either "homozygot / homogametic"[XX] or "hemizygot/ hemigametic"[XY].
