  1. Genes have a correspondence with alleles.

    As there are about 30000 genes there would be any many alleles, assuming that each gene is in a single copy.


  2. 23 pairs of alleles

  3. There are 30,000 genes in humans.

    Maybe there exist 5 alleles on average for each.

    That's 150,000 total alleles.

  4. A given species has a specific number of chromosomes. The dipoid cells of humans have 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes. Of these 22 pairs are autosomes, the 23rd pair forms the s*x chromosomes made up of two X-chromosomes in the female and a y-chromosome in the male. Most animals have s*x chromosomes
