Are chromosomes genes or are genes chromosomes?
Genes are stretches of DNA that contain code to make proteins. Chromosomes are made up of numerous Genes.
What are chromosomes and genes composed of?
Genes are composed of DNA. Chromosomes are composed of DNA and proteins. Genes are the sections of DNA which code for a functional product (such as a protein). Chromosomes are the compact, tightly-coiled form of DNA. These appear before the cell undergoes division/replication.
The genes on the x and y chromosomes are called what?
The genes carried on the X and Y chromosomes are called your "sex chromosomes".
What located on chromosomes and carry hereditary instructions?
Genes are located on chromosomes and carry hereditary instructions that are passed from parents to offspring. Genes determine various traits and characteristics in living organisms.
What do you call the genes that are located on the sex chromosomes?
genes located on sex chromosomes are called sex-linked genes. In humans, there are two types of sex chromosomes: X and Y chromosomes.Genes located on the X chromosome are called X-linked and genes located on the Y chromosome are called Y-linked chromosomes.
Are the chromosomes located in the genes?
No, the genes are in the chromosomes

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.
When do strands of DNA form chromosomes?
When dividing to create genes for offspring. :p
Are chromosomes found on genes?
Chromosomes contain genes, which are the units of inheritance that carry genetic information. Genes are located on specific locations on chromosomes, known as gene loci. Each chromosome carries hundreds to thousands of genes that determine an individual's traits and characteristics.
Difference between chromosomes and genes?
Chromosomes are structures that contain genes, which are the functional units of heredity. Genes are specific segments of DNA that encode information for producing proteins, while chromosomes are made up of DNA and protein and contain many genes. Chromosomes are organized in pairs in a cell's nucleus, while genes are the specific units on chromosomes responsible for inherited traits.
What role do chromosomes play in inhertance?
Genes are located on chromosomes. Genes are simply regions on chromosomes that code for polypeptides.
The genes on the x and y chromosomes are called what?
The genes carried on the X and Y chromosomes are called your "sex chromosomes".
How are genes chromosomes and DNA related?
if a cat has 38 chromosomes in each of its body celss, how many chromosomes will be in each daughter cell after mitosis?
What located on chromosomes and carry hereditary instructions?
Genes are located on chromosomes and carry hereditary instructions that are passed from parents to offspring. Genes determine various traits and characteristics in living organisms.
Are genes inherited the same way as chromosomes?
Genes are contained in chromosomes - therefore they are inherited together.
