A potato has more chromosomes than you!

You really hate your biology class? Don’t worry! We are here to make it fun!First of all you must know that you started off as a single cell (yes you were forever alone at some point). That cell divided, made all kind of cells that you can think of and that are how you tissues and organs were created!

How did they know what to do? The chromosomes told them what was up!You’ve probably heard of what a chromosome is before, especially since that’s what you are made of! A chromosome is an organized structure of DNA (This is what makes you unique), protein, and RNA found in cells.
In humans there are 46 chromosomes, of which 23 come from daddy and 23 come from mommy, making us 50 % like mommy and 50 % like daddy! And therefore that makes you a combination of both! So you can thank them or blame them for the way you look, act and behave!

Even though humans are one of the most complex organisms in the world, and that this would make you think we have a lot of chromosomes, we have less than something as simple as a potato! Two more chromosomes than humans!So yeah, next time you see a potato, remember, they are very complex too.
