Who came up with and developed the idea that a computer program could actually be stored in the computer memory itself in the form of encoded CPU instructions?

This is not known. John von Neumann is commonly credited, but he simply documented an idea that had been discussed for some time by the various designers of ENIAC.

What is the name of molecule where these instructions are encoded on?
You think probable to DNA - deoxyribonucleic acid.
Why do some programs request that you restart your computer to complete installation?
Well, most programs do actually so that the registry keys can be updated and encoded with your new system.
Where do instructions for the organization and metabolism of living things encoded at?
In heriditary material i.e. DNA or genes
Real numbers are encoded using the what technique in computer?
I believe it is the floating-point.
What information is encoded in radio waves?
Whatever the sender wants to. Sounds can be encoded in the radio waves, but also computer data (digital information, in form of 1's and 0's).
When DNA does not provide instructions for assembling a protein properly?
When DNA does not provide instructions for assembling a protein properly, this could be dangerous. This is caused by inability of the genes to pass the encoded message to amino acids.
The diffence between human virus and computer viruses?
Human viruses take over human cellular functions. These human viruses have either RNA or DNA instruction sets surrounded by a protein coat. After these instructions enter the human cell, they co-opt cell functions to perform duties the virus wants done. Computer viruses take over computer functions. Computer viruses are programs created by humans and have a series of 1's and 0's to make up instruction sets. After these instructions enter the computer, they co-opt computer functions to perform duties the virus wants done. So, the biggest difference is that the human virus instruction set is encoded in biological molecules of RNA or DNA, and the computer virus instruction set is encoded in 1's and 0's that the computer sees as a program to run.
Where in an embryo are the instructions located for how to build organisms?
In the nuclei of the cells.
What was the earliest computer languages and were they Binary Code FORTRAN COBOL.?
The oldest computer language is machine code and all computer languages are binary encoded. It's unavoidable on binary machines.
How is information moved around within a computer?
Information is moved around within a computer by being encoded in the form of bits and being transferred via data buses.
How are all quantities represented in a digital computer?
As encoded values composed of one or more bits. A small number of computers used trits instead of bits, but these were rare. Some computers of a new type currently being developed called quantum computers use quebits instead of bits. But the important thing common to all digital computers is the encoded values.This is in contrast to analog computers where quantities are represented as continuous values.
What is the suffix of encoded?
The suffix in the word encoded is -ed.
