sections of DNA in the chromosome that carry the information for the traits of an organism such as hair color, eye color, height, etc. Genes, like the chromosomes they make up, are in pairs. One half of the pair comes from one parent and one half from the other parent and are joined into pairs when the sperm fertilizes the egg during reproduction. Each member of a pair of genes is called an allele.
Genes 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.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. In humans, alleles of particular genes come in pairs, one on each chromosome (we have 23 pairs of chromosomes). 2  If the alleles of a particular gene are the same, the organism is described as homozygous for that gene. 3  If they are different the organism is described as heterozygous for that gene.
