So just to be clear, does each chromosome contain the entire "book" or instructions for the complete genome of a phenotype, or is each chromosome a different "volume" with different "chapters" or "words," that is genes, for specific functions? When the set of chromosomes split, do the 23 chromosomes in the sperm contain 23 replicas of the father's entire genome, or half of it, that is 23 distinct "volumes" for the instructions of some functions?
