What are made up of genes?
Genes are made of DNA (or RNA - not in humans). They are sequences that encode for a functional product (usually a protein). Chromosomes contain genes.
A chromosome is made up of DNA and protein in the nucleus of a cell?
Wrong, Chromosones are made up of DNA and DNA contains genes.
Are DNA or RNA made up of genes?
Amost all organisms have genes that are made of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) but there are some kinds of viruses known as retroviruses whose genes are composed of RNA (ribonucleic acid).
What are chromosomes made up of?
Chromosomes are made up of many genes joined together like beads on a string.
Genes make up about percent of DNA?
There has been a lot of research through the Human Genome Project to determine this. 1.5 percent of DNA in the body is made of Genes.
What are made up of genes?
Genes are made of DNA (or RNA - not in humans). They are sequences that encode for a functional product (usually a protein). Chromosomes contain genes.
Is it the gene that contains the DNA or the DNA that contains the gene?
Chromosomes are made up of DNA. DNA is made up of genes.
How are genes are protein related?
Genes are made up of DNA. DNA have codes to form proteins
Are genes are made up of smaller molecules known as chromosomes?
No, chromosomes are made of genes and DNA. Gene sequences make up DNA, and this DNA is coiled up and makes up chromosomes.
Are genes and proteins both made of DNA?
Genes are the units of heredity, and are made up of segments of DNA
What is a sentence with gene?
Her DNA had the same Genes as her mother when she had the same blue eyes.
Explain how DNA genes and chromosomes are related?
DNA is the molecule that genes are made of. Chromosomes are the (arbitrary) clumping that genes form in cells.
A chromosome is made up of DNA and protein in the nucleus of a cell?
Wrong, Chromosones are made up of DNA and DNA contains genes.
Are genes made of DNA?
Actually its the other way around. DNA is the structure that contains genes and passes them from generation to generation allowing traits to be inherited. I wish I could go into better detail but I'm more of a physics and chemistry kinda guy.
What is located in the nuclei on chromosomes?
it is made up of PROTEINS and DNA MOLECULE, it is located in the nucleus.
Are DNA or RNA made up of genes?
Amost all organisms have genes that are made of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) but there are some kinds of viruses known as retroviruses whose genes are composed of RNA (ribonucleic acid).
What is gene are made up of?
Genes make up a person or other living thing's genetic makeup. These are traits that can be seen for example.
