Results. 1  A total of 417 freediving accident cases were captured; 308 fatal and 109 non-fatal. 2  51Â±9 (40-63) fatal cases annually (Figure 1). 3  Incidents were reported from 56 countries. 4  46% in America; 11% in Australia; and single digits elsewhere. 5  Freediving victims were 41Â±17 (5-93) years of age (92% known) (Figure 2).
All of the DNA found in an organism is collectively referred to as the genome. The human genome is comprised of 23 pairs of linear chromosomes, and approximately 3000 megabases (Mb) of DNA, while thegenome of the bacterium Escherichia coli consists of a single 4.6 Mb circular chromosome.
Number and shape: The number of chromosomes present in bacteria is only 1 and it is circular in shape (no ends). In humans 46 (23 pairs) of linear chromosomes are present. The ends of the linear chromosomes are called as telomeres. Amount of DNA present in a human cell is 1000 times the DNA present in a bacterial cell.
