Approximately 1.5% of the human genome codes for protein. The amount of functional RNA produces is only a fraction higher than this amout. This is because many RNA molecules have a very short half life and there has to be enough steady state RNA to code for protein
It varies greatly between species, but in humans only 2-3% of DNA actually codes for proteins. The other 98% is of relatively unknown function, however recently great breakthroughs have been made that imply it is far more necessary than previously thought. Roughly half of human DNA is (or was) called junk DNA, and is made up of repeated sequences.
Possibly around 25% of DNA is a type of protein; attaching purines and pyrimidines together.
About 2%
2 percent
The human DNA codes for proteins through transcription and replication of the genes. Only about 2 percent of the DNA is used for coding.
DNA controls the production of certain proteins in the cell. Different DNA codes make different proteins. Proteins made in the cell bond together to make amino acids.
The parts of DNA that provide the code for protein are called genes.
Mitochondrial DNA codes for 13 mitochondrial proteins, 16S and 12S rRNA and 22 tRNAs
It's the protein solution which is "alive", The DNA is just a form of record keeping.
The parts of DNA that code for proteins are called genes.
I am not 100% sure what you mean by this question, but i'll try to answer it! I'm pretty sure that all DNA is important, but only about 1.5% of your DNA codes for proteins (is coding DNA). The other 98.5% is 'non coding' DNA and does not code for proteins

DNA codes for RNA, which codes for the synthesis (making) of proteins from amino acids. Almost all of our characteristics are in some way related to proteins. For example, one peson's face is distinguishable from another person's face because of their respective proteins. Thus, DNA codes for the proteins that control at least some of our traits.
DNA codes for proteins, which make up nearly every part of the body. Through transcription and translation, DNA can be expressed in proteins.
DNA controls the production of certain proteins in the cell. Different DNA codes make different proteins. Proteins made in the cell bond together to make amino acids.
Genes are made up of DNA. DNA have codes to form proteins
DNA is transcribed into RNA which is then translated into proteins. These proteins give you your hair color, eye color, and other such traits.
No. The genetic code is passed on through the DNA.
no, false
The parts of DNA that provide the code for protein are called genes.
