Each chromosome has two telomeres, one at each end. These telomeres protect the chromosomal DNA from degradation and ensure the integrity of the genetic material during cell division. The number of telomeres in a cell depends on the number of chromosomes. For example, humans have 46 chromosomes, so they have 92 telomeres in total (two telomeres per chromosome).
