Answer:

62 chromosomes.

Explanation:

Sex cells are formed undergoing meiosis, which means that they contain a haploid number of chromosomes. (Half the number that somatic/body cells contain). 31 is half of 62, which means that the diploid number of chromosomes in the body cells of a giraffe would be 62.
