Question

IS IT TRUE THAT CHROMOSOME CONTAIN GENE and gene contains DNA?

Answer 1

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the cell's genetic material, contained in chromosomes within the cell nucleus and mitochondria. Except for certain cells (for example, sperm and egg cells and red blood cells), the cell nucleus contains 23 pairs of chromosomes. A chromosome contains many genes.



A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Gene, which are made up of DNA, act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases. ... Each chromosome contains many genes.
