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.
DNA is a long molecule packaged into structures called chromosomes. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, including a single pair of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males). Within each pair, one chromosome comes from an individualâs mother and the other comes from the father.In other words, we inherit half of our DNA from each of our parents.his process is called gene expression. When genes are inactive, they are silent or inaccessible for protein production. At least a third of the approximately 20,000 different genes that make up the human genome are active (expressed) primarily in the brain.
