Hvor mange kromosomer er der i en menneskelig karyotype?
46
Karyotype
Arbejdet fandt sted i 1955 og blev offentliggjort i 1956. Menneskets karyotype omfatter kun 46 kromosomer. Det er ret interessant, at menneskeaberne har 48 kromosomer. Man ved nu, at menneskets kromosom 2 er et resultat af en end-to-end-fusion af to forfædres apekromosomer.

The work took place in 1955, and was published in 1956. The karyotype of humans includes only 46 chromosomes. Rather interestingly, the great apes have 48 chromosomes. Human chromosome 2 is now known to be a result of an end-to-end fusion of two ancestral ape chromosomes.
