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
Intergenic regions are stretches of DNA located between genes, while intragenic regions are parts of a gene itself.
A new gene can be inserted into an animal's genome through genetic engineering techniques, such as gene editing or transgenesis. These techniques can replace a faulty gene with a functional one, or introduce a completely new gene into the genome. Additionally, gene therapy can be used to deliver therapeutic genes into an animal's cells to treat genetic disorders.
CRISPR cuts in specific locations in the genome during gene editing.
The average gene length in a typical human genome is about 27,000 base pairs.
Humans have two copies of each gene in their genome, one inherited from each parent.
Intergenic regions are stretches of DNA located between genes, while intragenic regions are parts of a gene itself.
nucleus → chromosome → gene
order from largest to smallest: gene, genome, chromosome, DNA, gene pool
Other than the specific human genome and resulting gene expression of the cell, there is no difference. Humans are simply one kind of animal.
genome -> chromosome -> DNA -> gene

yes
A gene is a specific sequence of DNA that contains the instructions to make a functional product like a protein, while a genome is the complete set of an organism's genetic material, including all its genes. Think of a gene as a single instruction in a recipe book, and the genome as the entire recipe book.
