There is a DNA string, which is made up of chromosomes, and the chromosomes have genes in them; what genes do is they control a person or animals certain traits, what they look like and what they like to do.

Genes are like how long your hair is and what color of your eyes. Genes are divided into two groups Dominant and Recessive. Dominant means it will make you have something like your parents. Recessive gene If your mom has a recessive gene for blue eyes and your dad has a Dominant gene of Green eyes then you'll have green eyes. Genes come from your parents when meiosis happens. Genes are formed by a bunch of DNA strands. These strands make up a gene when a bunch of genes come together then your get a chromosome.

Genes are DNA particles that you get from your parents. The give you your features that make your body like example, height, eyes, hair, skin, speech and things. If your parents have to many genes that are alike that's usally what causes like brain damages, and those types of things. That's why (ex.) cousins can't have kids together because their genetics are to much alike.

They are found in almost every cell's nucleus and are made from strands of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Segments of DNA called "genes" are the ingredients. Each gene adds a specific protein to the recipe. Proteins build, regulate and maintain your body.

Genes are a DNA of your biological parent so if your mom and your dad both have blue eyes you are most likely to have blue eyes as well




CherLent05 said...

Genes are what makes you look like at least one of your biological parents. Example: If your mom has blue eyes and your dad has brown eyes, your eyes would most likely be a hazel greenish color. If your mom has blonde hair and you dad has red hair, you will most likely have a strawberry blonde.
