Why does each human have two sets of 23 chromosomes? Where do those chromosome sets come from? How would your chromosomes compare to someone else’s chromosomes?

This is because our chromosomes exist in matching pairs – with one chromosome of each pair being inherited from each biological parent. Every cell in the human body contains 23 pairs of such chromosomes; our diploid number is therefore 46, our 'haploid' number 23.

Explanation:

Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes because 23 chromosomes come from the father and the other 23 come from the mother, and thus humans end up with 46 chromosomes. With 23 sets, you have two copies of each gene. This is what happens in normal situations. However, in some cases during cell division, there could be more or less that 46 chromosomes.

One set of 23 chromosomes is inherited from the biological mother (from the egg), and the other set is inherited from the biological father (from the sperm). Of the 23 pairs of chromosomes, the first 22 pairs are called "autosomes." The final pair is called the "sex chromosomes."

In a normal diploid cell, there are 24 *different* chromosomes out the total of 46: there are 22 pairs of identical autosomes and 2 non-identical sex chromosomes.

if the type of the food available changes, then the frequency of beak types will change, because birds with beaks more suited to the available food will be more successful over time.
