Bring chromosomes and genetics to life with our unique plush representation of the real Chromosome structure!

Chromosomes are threadlike structures inside of cells that store genetic information. They are composed of the material chromatin, which consists of DNA, RNA and proteins. Most human cells have two pairs of 23 chromosomes, one pair from your mother and the other from your father, for a total of 46 chromosomes.

Great gift for anyone who wants to know who they are and what they're made of.

FACTS:

Chromosomes are thread-like structures inside cells that store genetic information. They are composed of the material chromatin, which consists of DNA, RNA and proteins. Most human cells have two pairs of 23 chromosomes, one pair from your mother and the other from your father, for a total of 46 chromosomes.

In the 1890s, Theodor Boveri was the first to suggest that generated were contained in coiled filaments found in the cell nucleus. He discovered these structures by staining sea urchin cells with blue dye. Thus chromo or color is the basis of the word chromosome.
