. There are 20290 protein coding genes in the human genome. The total length of all 22 autosomal chromosomes plus the two sex chromosomes is 1052 mm. The length of the X chromosome is 53 mm. We assume that the size of protein coding genes is equal among chromosomes. We're interested in testing whether the number of protein coding genes is evenly distributed among chromosomes including the sex chromosomes. Calculate the EXPECTED number of protein coding genes on the X chromosome. Show your work for full points and clearly state your answer in words. [2 points)
