Basically, one gene gives the instructions for making one protein. I'm not sure how much detail you want, here, but a gene is a segment of DNA and the sequence of bases in the DNA determine the sequence of amino acids that make up the protein.

What type of molecule dose genes they code for?
Genes code for proteins
How are genes and proteins related?
one gene codes for one protein - apex
What do proteins have to do with genes?
Genes are sections of DNA which contain the code to make different proteins. DNA is made of long chains of 4 different chemical bases, A,C,G and T. The combination of these bases provides the information on the sequence of amino acids that make a particular protein.
How do dna-binding proteins in prokaryotes regulate genes?
Clever mechanisms turn genes off and on so that they only function when there is a need for their services
An expressed gene is one that?
is transcribed into RNA. Promoters (I think that's what you meant, right?) don't function as genes; they stand as a signal for RNA polymerase to begin transcription of the actual gene, which begins about 25 base pairs downstream of the promoter region in eukaryotic DNA. Expressed genes DO code for proteins, but not all protein-coding genes are expressed. For example, the cells in your heart contain genes that code for proteins needed only in your liver. While those genes definitely code for proteins, they're not expressed. Expressed genes (and non-expressed genes, Ke$ha Looks like a man, for that matter) are made of DNA, not mRNA.
What is the relationship between genes and proteins?
DNA Genes and Proteinthe gene is a subunit of DNA, one strand of DNA is copied into mRNA which is then translated into proteins
What describes how genes produce traits in an organism?
genes are codes for proteins that determine traits
What best describes How genes produce traits in an organism?
genes are codes for proteins that determine traits
What describes the relationship between the number of genes and the number of chromosomes in human skin cells?
There are more genes than chromosomes in skin cells.
What is the relationship between chromosomes and DNA molecules?
Chromosomes are complete molecules of DNA and its attached proteins. A chromosome carries part or all of an organisms genes.
What is the relationship between genes and cells?
the same relationship as between humans and the universe.
What is the relationship between an organism's genes and its traits?
genes are what makes you who you are and how you look and traits are the genes that you get from your parents.
What is the relationship between chromosomes and genes and between genes and DNA?
Chromosomes contain genes which are segments of DNA.
The connection that exist between the genes and hereditary traits requires the deciphering of the information encoded in genes?
Proteins
What is the relationship between the genes and chromosomes?
There are thousands of genes in a chromosome.
Which statement best describes the relationship among proteins DNA and RNA?
Cells contain DNA,which controls the production of proteins
What are the links between DNA genes chromosomes and proteins?
Chromosomes are long strands of DNA which are held together by proteins.
