no, the gene is not actually the chromosome but a part of chormosome...
When a gene is linked to a chromosome, it means that the gene is physically located on that chromosome. This means that the gene is inherited along with the chromosome it is located on, and may be inherited together with other nearby genes on the same chromosome.
No. A chromosome is composed of proteins and genes.
homologous chromosomes
nucleus → chromosome → gene
Smallest to largest: Gene (a place on a chromosome); chromosome (there are 46 in human cells); and DNA (because it accounts for all the genetic material in a cell).
The specific location of a gene on a chromosome is called it's locus.
An allele is an alternative form of a gene that is found at the same location on a chromosome.
The HBB gene, which codes for the beta globin protein, is located on chromosome 11.
chromosome 1 chromosome 1
It is a gene located on either sex chromosome (X or Y chromosome).
DNA or genens these are the segments of the chromosome.
