Why are genes a part of DNA?
DNA is what codes for genes. Alot of DNA together makes a gene, and many genes and other sections of DNA make a chromosome. Lets say for example the chromosome is a cookbook, and a gene is just one recipe, then the DNA molecules are the letters and the paper. Not all DNA codes for a gene/recipe for example in the cookbook there may be some pages explaining kitchen tools, or how to choose fresh vegetables.
Why is the DNA molecule reffered to as the blue prit of life?
Because, supposedly, the information in DNA is like having a blueprint instruction for building bodies. Actually, blueprint is the wring way to look at DNA. DNA is a recipe for building bodies. In a blueprint the instructions are one to one mapping, but in actuality the instruction are more like the recipe for making a cake. No one can say how the ingredients of a cake map one to one to the final cake no more than one can say how many genes map to human bodies. Google plieotropy and polygenic effects of genes.
What is an analogy for DNA?
I found your question because I am looking for the same answer..maybe by now you found it..A simple way to look at this is: DNA is like the blue print of your house; it gives instruction.
How does a gene differ from genome?
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.
What do you call a short piece of DNA that codes for a certain protein?
DNA does not make proteins directly. Rather, the DNA is the mother-of-all recipes that specialized transcription proteins (tRNA) read to make messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is the specific recipe to make specific proteins. The specific code of DNA are made of regions called introns and exons. Exons are what the gene has coded for and introns are "spacers". I remember exons are exactly what is needed and introns are intervening sequences.
What is the recipe genes carry?
DNA
What is a analogy for DNA?
DNA is like a recipe book in a kitchen - it contains all the instructions for building and maintaining an organism, just as a recipe book contains instructions for cooking a meal. Just like you can follow a recipe to create a dish, cells use DNA to create proteins and carry out biological processes.
Which molecule is sometime referred to as the recipe book for how to make?
DNA
What is the signficance of DNA in the chromosome?
DNA and proteins are what a chromosome is mostly comprised of. The DNA serves as code and instructions for the organism, almost like a recipe.
Which part of the cell is like a recipe book?
The part of the cell that is like a recipe book would be the DNA. This is because the DNA tells the organelles each of their functions.
Which molecule is sometimes referred to as the recipe book for how to make protein?
DNA
What is made up of surgar a phosphate gruop and a nitrogen base?
That is the recipe for DNA.
What is exposed when DNA cookbook unzips a complete protein recipe?
When DNA unzips a complete protein recipe, it exposes the genetic code in the form of mRNA. This mRNA carries the instructions for building the protein from the DNA to the ribosomes in the cell, leading to the synthesis of the protein through a process called translation.
What does central dogma tell us?
From the genetic information, DNA, to the transcription into RNA, to the translation of RNA into protein. This is the path the genetic recipe takes.
Do animals have a DNA?
No. But the chimpanzee's DNA is similar to ours by 98%People believe that we humans developed from the 'chimpanzee because of how similar our DNA samples. Itis thought that the chimpanzee is as intelligent as ahuman but in different ways.

What is the significance of adenine thymine guanine and cytosine in the structure of a DNA molecule?
The order of these bases dictate what proteins will be made, sort of like a recipe, but in code.
