Question: How many chromosomes does a white rat have?

A crucial question if the answer to life, the universe and everything is 42
and you happen to be a pan-dimensional being masquerading as a white
laboratory rat ...

Yes I know the book specifies white mice (chromosome count of 40 not 42),
but I put that down to species mis-identification by Douglas Adams
