Chromosomes are paired strands of DNA, with accompanying structural proteins, on which genes are located. Domestic cattle have 30 pairs of chromosomes, one chromosome of each pair having been inherited form each parent. One random chromosome of each pair is transmitted to each egg or sperm cell produced by a parent.

(Learning Modules / Biology / DNA / Glossary) A threadlike 'package' or structure of genes, made up of DNA in the nucleus of a cell. Chromosomes direct the activity within the cell and pass on genetic information to new cells. Different kinds of organisms have different numbers of chromosomes. Humans have 23 pairs, 46 in all: 44 autosomes and two sex chromosomes....
