I have read many sources on DNA and still have a few questions. Let me start with this one, and depending on the answers I will ask more.
Question 1. f I were to look into a human cell how would I see the DNA? Is there a single very long copy of the DNA string or are there two copies.
Question 2. Are the chromosomes located along the DNA string or are they individual pieces of DNA, i.e. are there 46 pieces of separate DNA each representing a single chromosome?
In summary, how many string would I initially see? 1, 2, 46 or how many?
