DNA, which looks like an hour glass.
The structure in the cell that contains the instructions to make proteins is the nucleus. Inside the nucleus, DNA carries the genetic information that provides the instructions for protein synthesis. This information is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) which is then used by ribosomes to translate the instructions and synthesize proteins.
Genes are really part of DNA, which is found in the nucleus of cells.
The y chromosome, which only contains a few hundred genes.
Typically, a chromosome contains hundreds to thousands of genes.
Can each chromosome usually contain multiple genes? yes each chromosome usually contains more than one gene.
the nucleus
DNA
the genes!
DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid, is the structure that contains the genes.

Genes are really part of DNA, which is found in the nucleus of cells.
Genes are found in the nucleus , but proteins are made on ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
20.3% of your DNA contains genes
A spooled string of genes packaged in a single unit is called a chromosome. A chromosome is a structure of DNA, RNA, and protein which are found in cells.
Chromosomes in the nucleus contain genes. DNA contains the information that we call a gene. A gene is a region of DNA on a chromosome that contains the information needed by the cells ribosomes to create a protein.
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.
