Genes are sections of DNA which contain the code to make different proteins. DNA is made of long chains of 4 different chemical bases, A,C,G and T. The combination of these bases provides the information on the sequence of amino acids that make a particular protein.

What type of molecule dose genes they code for?
Genes code for proteins
How are genes and proteins related?
one gene codes for one protein - apex
How do dna-binding proteins in prokaryotes regulate genes?
Clever mechanisms turn genes off and on so that they only function when there is a need for their services
An expressed gene is one that?
is transcribed into RNA. Promoters (I think that's what you meant, right?) don't function as genes; they stand as a signal for RNA polymerase to begin transcription of the actual gene, which begins about 25 base pairs downstream of the promoter region in eukaryotic DNA. Expressed genes DO code for proteins, but not all protein-coding genes are expressed. For example, the cells in your heart contain genes that code for proteins needed only in your liver. While those genes definitely code for proteins, they're not expressed. Expressed genes (and non-expressed genes, Ke$ha Looks like a man, for that matter) are made of DNA, not mRNA.
Why can Bacteria are able to produce human proteins?
They reproduce quickly, so they often produce much of the desired protein in a short time.
What do genes contain instructions for?
Genes contain instructions for building proteins.
What type of molecule dose genes they code for?
Genes code for proteins
How do our genes control our proteins?
Genes contain our DNA. Proteins are synthesized according to data on DNA
Does proteins determine Genes?
No they are not. Proteins are synthesized as per the information present in the DNA or genes. So Genes are something which determine the phenotype or a character of an organism by making RNA and proteins.
What are some examples of proteins produced by genes?
If you're synthesizing the proteins yourself (meaning you didn't ingest them), then all proteins are produced by genes.
What kind of factors are caused by genes?
Genes produce proteins and what we are is determined by genes.
What are the genes responsible for the characteristics?
Genes are transcribed to make Proteins
Can genes carry hereditary instructions?
Genes carry the instructions to make proteins, i think....
How genes produce traits in an organism?
Genes produce traits by describing and reproducing the essential proteins essential for life. +genes are codes for proteins that determine traits.
What is a gene production?
Genes code for proteins, but they do not produce proteins.
How do genes affect cells?
Genes tell cells how to make proteins.
What molecule are genes responsible for making?
Genes are the blueprints for making proteins.
