Genes are in the Deoxyribonucleuc Acid (DNA), which is in the chromosomes, which is in the nucleus of every cell, which makes up our tissues which makes up our organs which make up the organ system, which then (finally) we have the complete organism.

What number is closest to the number of different genes in a human body cell?

It was expected that we will find out about 1,00,00 different genes before Human genome mapping was done. In fact, we could find lesser number. Different books give different number but number is probably between 20,000 to 25,000. We got psychological depression, when we found same number of genes in round worm also.


Are master genes and homeotic genes the same thing?

Master genes and homeotic genes are related but not the same. Homeotic genes are a specific type of master gene that regulate the development of anatomical structures in organisms, determining the identity of body parts. Master genes generally refer to genes that control the expression of other genes and play crucial roles in regulating developmental processes. Thus, while all homeotic genes are master genes, not all master genes are homeotic genes.


What is the minimum amount of genes needed by a living cell?

The minimum number of genes needed by a living cell can vary depending on the organism. Some simple bacteria can survive with around 200-300 genes, while more complex organisms like humans have around 20,000-25,000 genes. Generally, these genes are necessary to provide the essential functions for the cell to survive and replicate.


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.

How do you find genes unique to candida albicans using bioinformatics?

By exploring in biological databases such as NCBI you can find the specific genes of any organism. By aligning the genes of Candida with related species of bacteria or fungus one can fish out the unique genes of Candida that are not common in other organism. There are tools for these sequence alignments (eg:BLAST, FASTA)

What scientific laws can tell you about nature?

one of the laws that can help you find a law that can tell you about nature is the laws of heredity. These laws explain how genes are inherited, but do not explain how genes work.


What is gene mapping?

dont trip gene mapping is a procedure by which you find out what type of genes are present in the chromosomes of a living organism. you identify the location of genes also. for example the gene mapping of human was completed in 2001-2003 because humans have 45 chromosomes and approximately 35000 genes. so to identify such a large amount of genes and to find out their location, the scientists of the world distributed the task among themselves but still it took several years!!
