SO...WHERE DO GENOMES COME FROM?
We have TWO genomes each, actually. Both are from out parents. One set of our genomes comes from our mom(egg cell), and the other comes from our dad (sperm cell).
At the moment of fertilization, the sperm cell and the egg cell join together to make a cell containing two genomes. The fertilized egg then has a complete set of instructions to make a new person, you!
