What food make genes?

Genes (genetic codes found in chromosomes) are not made by food, but by the organisms that consume the food.


Do letters make up the DNA molecule code for genes?

A, G, C, U whereas in DNA we have A,G,C,T in conclusion we have uracil that substitutes thymine in an RNA sequence


What is the role of DNA in determining and organisms traits?

Yes, the DNA molecule is made up of segments of coding called Genes. Each gene codes to make a different protein or genetic characteristic.


Is the genetic code found in DNA?

Yes. Everything that you are and what you look like are coded in the DNA in your genes. The genes are sections of DNA which are the codes that make you.


What is the function of the DNA molecule?

They consist of the genes that code for the proteins that make up your body.


How are genes and proteins related?

one gene codes for one protein - apex


Where is a gene locted?

A gene is a segement of DNA that codes for a particular trait. DNA, and the genes that make up it, are found in the nucleus.


Why are genes a part of DNA?

DNA is what codes for genes. Alot of DNA together makes a gene, and many genes and other sections of DNA make a chromosome. Lets say for example the chromosome is a cookbook, and a gene is just one recipe, then the DNA molecules are the letters and the paper. Not all DNA codes for a gene/recipe for example in the cookbook there may be some pages explaining kitchen tools, or how to choose fresh vegetables.


How are chromosomes genes and DNA alike and why are they in the cell?

The building blocks of your body are cells. In the cells are nuclei where DNA is located. The DNA is made of chromosomes which contain all the information or codes that make you who you are. These codes we call genes. The number of chromosomes varies with the species. We, as humans, have 23 pairs.


What specific amino acid that codes for part of a protein?

That MAY have happened 3.5 billion years ago ... but not today. DNA carries the codes for amino acid sequences. RNA transfers the codes. Ribosomes link the amino acids into proteins. Amino acids don't code for proteins, genes do. The base sequence in the genes codes for how the amino acids should be sequenced to make proteins.


A long thread like molecule that includes genes?

DNA is a very long strand of a molecules, made up of four bases connected in pairs and spiraling into a double helix. Sequences of these bases are what make up genes.


Genes control the cellular activity through the DNA molecule which leads to production of specific ribosomes?

Not really, although ribosomes do play a part in it. Genes have codes that makes proteins, a necessary part of biology. A protein is made by the ribosome, which is also made by the nucleolus inside the nucleus. Although ribosome is apart from the main DNA that makes up the chromosomes, it still contains the DNA that can make the parts of ribosomes.
