No - genes are the parts of DNA that code for a functional product (such as a protein). There are other parts of the DNA which are not genes.

What is the functional segment of DNA?
Functional segments of DNA are called genes
How is a gene related to the sequence of nucleotides?
Genes are segments of DNA. DNA is made up of polymer of nucleotides joined together. When there is an alteration in the sequence of nucleotides, gene mutation occurs.
What genes are DNA and chromosomes?
DNA is a large, polymeric biomolecule composed of four different types of subunits called nucleotides. The sequence of nucleotides within the DNA molecule can encode information. All the information necessary to encode a protein is called a gene. DNA molecules can be extremely long - extending for millions of nucleotides. A chromosome is a single DNA molecule (encoding thousands of genes) plus associated proteins that provide structure and play key roles in the regulations of genes.
Are genes on DNA and DNA on chromosomes?
Not quite. Don't think of these things being on each other. Genes and chromosomes are made of DNA. DNA is a large, polymeric biomolecule composed of four different types of subunits called nucleotides. The sequence of nucleotides within the DNA molecule can encode information. All the information necessary to encode a protein is called a gene. DNA molecules can be extremely long - extending for millions of nucleotides. A chromosome is a single DNA molecule (encoding thousands of genes) plus associated proteins that provide structure and play key roles in the regulations of genes.
Is NOT true about DNA?
A.MADE OF REPETING SUBstens called nucleotides B.contains codes for your genes
The hereditary information in DNA is encoded in the sequence of?
nucleus, which has chromosomes that contain many genes
What types of nuclotides are in human DNA?
There are 4 different types of nucleotides in a humans DNA!
How does the DNA of humans and the DNA of animals compare?
They have the same nucleotides (A, T, C, G) and structure (double helix and chromosomes), and have a lot of the same genes, but a lot of genes differ, also.
What is the name of the nucleotides have no DNA and no RNA?
Nucleotides do not have DNA or RNA. DNA and RNA are composed of nucleotides.
What is the chemical structure in the human genes?
DNA
In 2003 what was achieved by the human genome project?
The human genome project began in 1990, and this project was to find the complete sequence of genes in a human. The goal of this project was to identify all genes in the human body, this meant as much as mapping out 3 billion base pairs of nucleotides in our DNA. It was completed in 2003 and this now allows for further development in biological diseases and also gives us a thorough analysis in human Biology.
DNA carries genetic information in its?
the order of the nucleotides in the molecule
