Fundamentals of Life : Genes, Genomes and Beyond
<p>The terms “<strong>GENE-GENOME-GENOMICS-GENETICS</strong>” are fundamental concepts in biology and genetic science and are closely related to each other. Let’s start by explaining the meaning of each term and their relationship:</p>
<p><strong>Gene:</strong> These are segments of DNA located in the DNA sequence that carry hereditary characteristics of living beings and have specific functions. Genes contain the necessary information for the production of proteins or RNA molecules that influence an organism’s development, behavior, appearance, and other characteristics.</p>
<p><strong>Genome:</strong> This term refers to the complete set of genetic material of an organism. It includes the entire set of DNA that contains all the genes of an organism. In some cases, like the human genome, it consists of billions of DNA base pairs.</p>
