how does it works by having only ONE chromossome?
Its DNA is efficiently encoded. 99% of the information in the 46 chromosomes of the human genome is not even used.

Well, it holds a place. I guess its how you look at it. Like I hear people say you only use 10% of your brain, but that simply isnt true. You *use* all of it, but only a small fraction of it is actively doing the work of conscious thinking. But all the non-thinking parts are essential too, and most of it is support for the part that does think, by mass at least.
I know what you mean and dont want you to think I am picking a petty fight in semantics. I just wanted to offer a different interpretation for other users.

it would be better if you would have said
"does not code for any proteins"

You're retarded. Most of our DNA is not expressed nor relevant to expression. Take Bio 101 again dumbass
