Dig out a ditch where your French drain will go. A standard French drain ditch is about 1.5 feet deep and 10-12 inches wide, varying based on the size of the pipe chosen (usually 4-6 inches) and the desired depth. Line the ditch on all sides with landscape fabric to prevent soil erosion.
1 A gene is a small section of DNA that contains the instructions for a specific molecule, usually a protein. 2  The purpose of genes is to store information. 3  Each gene contains the information required to build specific proteins needed in an organism.enes are small sections of DNA within the genome that code for proteins. They contain the instructions for our individual characteristics â like eye and hair colour.
The DNA contains the master plan for the creation of the proteins and other molecules and systems of the cell, but the carrying out of the plan involves transfer of the relevant information to RNA in a process called transcription. The RNA to which the information is transcribed is messenger RNA (mRNA).
