As of July 2014, the longest drop is at Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom at Six Flags Great Adventure, at 415 feet (126 m). A drop tower type of ride is distinct from an observation tower ride; the latter acts more like a traditional elevator, gently lifting riders up to its maximum height before lowering them gently as well.
The autosomes contain the rest of the genetic hereditary information. All act in the same way during cell division. Human cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes (22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes), giving a total of 46 per cell. In addition to these, human cells have many hundreds of copies of the mitochondrial genome.
Originally Answered: I'm confused about the number of chromosomes in a human during mitosis and meiosis. I read how there are 23 pairs of chromosome, 96 pairs, 46 pairs and I see pics of only 23 chromosomes... How many chromosomes are in a human during a regular stage, mitosis, and meiosis? In humans every cell (exceptng oocytes and spermatozoa--the gametocytes, or egg and sperm cells) have 23 pairs of chromosomes in them. 22 of those pairs look very much alike in males or females--these pairs are called autosomal chromosomes.
