The repetitive DNA at the tip of each chromosome is called a telomere. Telomeres protect the chromosome from deterioration or fusion with neighboring chromosomes, and they shorten with each cell division. This shortening is linked to aging and disease.
It was meant toidentify all the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA,determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA
No. The human cell has 23 chromosome pairs (total 46 chromosomes). Each chromosome has many genes.
Two, one from each parent. Over 90,000 genes are found on each chromosome and are mostly responsible for protein productions.
No. The human cell has 23 chromosome pairs (total 46 chromosomes). Each chromosome has many genes.

It is not possible to provide a complete list of nucleotide sequences on an individual's chromosome in a single answer, as each chromosome contains millions of nucleotides. The human genome has over 3 billion base pairs, which make up the DNA on 23 pairs of chromosomes. The sequence can vary between individuals due to genetic variations.
Each chromosome has genes on it in the form of coded base nucleotide sequence which is part of DNA.
1 billion

Each human chromosome is typically replicated in multiple sections called replication origins. These origins are sites along the chromosome where the DNA double helix unwinds and new DNA strands are synthesized during DNA replication.
If you mean haploid, as in half of each chromosome, or containing only one chromatid from each full chromosome, thenthe cell is called haploid.
Yes, each protein in an organism is coded by a specific sequence of nucleotides in its DNA. The genetic code determines how these sequences are translated into amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Each protein has a unique sequence of amino acids that gives it specific functions within the organism.
Yes.
