Basically genes encodes the basic function of an organism.genes are encoded in D.N.A(building block of life) like a chain. there may be upto nearly 20,000 genes linked in an individual D.N.A. the basic evolutionary characters of each organisms(including human) with step by step changes in it are all encoded and itself updates according to changes in day to day life of the organisms
