Genome = the total genetic content (many genes) contained in a haploid set of
chromosomes in eukaryotes, in a single chromosome in bacteria, or in the DNA or RNA of viruses.
a gene = One unit of the genome, consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism

∙ 8y agoA genome is the haploid set of chromosomes in a gamete or microorganism, or in each cell of a multicellular organism.
A gene is a unit of heredity that is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring.

What can replace a gene in an animal's genome?
Recombinant DNA can replace a gene in an animal's genome.
What is the difference between genome and karyotype?
the difference is simple it helps to decompose
Which process occurred frequently in the early history of the three domains on Earth and makes determining phylogenetic relationships of that time difficult?
Horizontal gene transfer permits gene flow from one organism's genome to another organism's genome, It occurs commonly between prokaryotes of different species, and even between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
What will a bacterium produce when a human gene is added to its genome?
the human protein coded for by the human gene
The actual gene makeup of an organism?
Genotype
What various types of genetic material in order from simplest to most complex?
nucleus → chromosome → gene
What can replace a gene in an animal's genome?
Recombinant DNA can replace a gene in an animal's genome.
What is the difference between genome and karyotype?
the difference is simple it helps to decompose
List by order size the following gene gene pool genome chromosome?
order from largest to smallest: gene, genome, chromosome, DNA, gene pool
What is the most broadest category to most specific category in genetic material in DNA?
genome -> chromosome -> DNA -> gene
What is the ticker symbol for genome therapeutics?
GENE
What is the different between a animal cell and human?
Other than the specific human genome and resulting gene expression of the cell, there is no difference. Humans are simply one kind of animal.
How does a gene differ from genome?
A gene is just the DNA that stores genetic information, a genome is all the genetic material in an organism.
What is the relation between DNA Gene Chromosome and Genome?
DNA is the smallest unit say a letter, then Gene it's like word, after that Chromosome it's like a sentence, Finally the biggest unit is Genome it's like a paragraph.
How can you add ADD a GENE to your genome?
yes
What is the difference between a gene and RFLP?
gene- meajda rflp- sjka
Difference between gene pool and gene bank?
The relationship between gene pool and allele frequency is a relative relationship. Allele frequency is a relative percentage of the entire gene pool.
