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.
Each gene has the instructions for one protein.
the gene has DNA
Genes code for proteins
one gene codes for one protein - apex
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.
Clever mechanisms turn genes off and on so that they only function when there is a need for their services
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.
DNA Genes and Proteinthe gene is a subunit of DNA, one strand of DNA is copied into mRNA which is then translated into proteins
genes are codes for proteins that determine traits
genes are codes for proteins that determine traits
There are more genes than chromosomes in skin cells.
Chromosomes are complete molecules of DNA and its attached proteins. A chromosome carries part or all of an organisms genes.
the same relationship as between humans and the universe.
genes are what makes you who you are and how you look and traits are the genes that you get from your parents.
Proteins
Chromosomes contain genes which are segments of DNA.
There are thousands of genes in a chromosome.
Cells contain DNA,which controls the production of proteins
Chromosomes are long strands of DNA which are held together by proteins.
