Genome is too big to be seen on a computer screen. Therefore, special computer programs are necessary. You can see some highlighted regions of ATGC sequences.

More useful visualization is using sequence editors that can show you long lines of sequences that can be slided.

Human genome contains 23 pairs of chromosomes that are in a way small separate genomes.
