Within my Science class we have been learning about Heredity. We also had to write a paragraph on the link between:
Chromosomes, DNA and Genes
DNA genes and chromosomes are all connected as they are all contained within an organism. DNA is responsible for your human structure. chromosomes are structures within cells that contain a person’s genes in which those genes are parts of your DNA that give you different traits and characteristics that make you unique in your own way. DNA is like the instruction manual for your body, it contains all of the information necessary to build and maintain an organism. Chromosomes hold your genes which are important parts of your personality. Look at it as if DNA is a book, genes are the chapters and chromosome that keep every chapter organised and accessible for your body to use as things for different characteristics. In conclusion, these three things DNA, gene and a Chromosomes work together to form your shape and who you are.
