A chromosome is made of a very long strand of DNA and contains many genes (hundreds to thousands). The genes on each chromosome are arranged in a particular sequence, and each gene has a particular location on the chromosome (called its locus).In addition to DNA, chromosomes contain other chemical components that influence gene function.very human cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
