A gene is just the DNA that stores genetic information, a genome is all the genetic material in an organism.

∙ 8y ago
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 various types of genetic material in order from simplest to most complex?
nucleus → chromosome → gene
What is the most broadest category to most specific category in genetic material in DNA?
genome -> chromosome -> DNA -> gene
What combined alleles of all the individuals in a population called?
We call these genes the genome.
Is a homologous pair bigger than a gene?
yes and a genome is larger than both
What is the gene pool of a species?
Genome is the entirety of an organism's hereditary information. It is either encoded in DNA or for many viruses, in RNA.
What various types of genetic material in order from simplest to most complex?
nucleus → chromosome → gene
List by order size the following gene gene pool genome chromosome?
order from largest to smallest: gene, genome, chromosome, DNA, gene pool
What is the most broadest category to most specific category in genetic material in DNA?
genome -> chromosome -> DNA -> gene
What is the ticker symbol for genome therapeutics?
GENE
What can replace a gene in an animal's genome?
A new gene can be inserted into an animal's genome through genetic engineering techniques, such as gene editing or transgenesis. These techniques can replace a faulty gene with a functional one, or introduce a completely new gene into the genome. Additionally, gene therapy can be used to deliver therapeutic genes into an animal's cells to treat genetic disorders.
How can you add ADD a GENE to your genome?
yes
What does the word gene?
A gene is a functional unit on DNA. A gene codes for a protein. Most of the DNA in a genome does not code for protein. These non-coding sequences are thought to provide a sense of stability and integrity to the genome. If a DNA sequence is capable of coding for a functional protein, then it is a gene
What is the main emphasis of the human genome project?
gene mapping
What is a discrete unit of genetic information?
A discrete unit of genetic information is a gene. A gene contains the instructions for making a specific protein or functional RNA molecule. It is passed down from parents to offspring and influences an individual's traits and characteristics.
List these in order from smallest to largest chromosome gene cell?
Smallest to largest: Gene (a place on a chromosome); chromosome (there are 46 in human cells); and DNA (because it accounts for all the genetic material in a cell).
What was the overall goal of the Human Genome Project?
To identify every human gene.<==== nova net answer.
What is the form of a gene that is hidden or masked when any other form of that same gene is present?
The hidden or masked form of a gene is called recessive. Recessive genes are only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the recessive allele. When a dominant allele is present, it will be expressed instead of the recessive allele.
