15 Αυγ 2020 · Chromosomes are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Each chromosome is made of protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Passed from parents to offspring, DNA contains the specific instructions that make each type of living creature unique.

The human genome is a complete set of nucleic acid sequences for humans, encoded as the DNA within each of the 24 distinct chromosomes in the cell nucleus. A small DNA molecule is found within individual mitochondria.
Draw the structure of an ‘average’ human gene. Categorize the human gene catalog into different functional classes. Distinguish between conventional and processed pseudogenes and other types of evolutionary relic. Give specific examples of the repetitive DNA content of the human genome.
The human genome includes 21,000 or so genes, spread out along 3 billion base pairs of DNA. This DNA is distributed among 23 chromosomes, of which we have two sets. We inherit one set from each parent. Each chromosome includes a single, linear molecule of DNA with its own set of genes.
The human genome is distributed among 24 chromosomes (22 autosomes and the 2 sex chromosomes), each containing between 5 × 10 4 and 26 × 10 4 kb of DNA (Figure 4.26). The first stage of human gene mapping is the assignment of known genes to a chromosomal locus, usually defined as a metaphase chromosome band.
Our genetic information is stored in 23 pairs of chromosomes that vary widely in size and shape. Chromosome 1 is the largest and is over three times bigger than chromosome 22. The 23rd pair of chromosomes are two special chromosomes, X and Y, that determine our sex.
