What is the units of heredity of a cell?
Genes are the units of hereditary material. Through genes, proteins are coded that will make up all of our characteristics. Genes are in a pair and are pieces of genetic material known as DNA. Humans have about 35,000 different genes that are organized into forms called chromosomes.
A piece of DNA that does not code for a protein is called a?
itron
DNA sequences that code for proteins are called what?
genes
What do you call a set three nitrogen bases?
A set of three nitrogen bases is called a codon. Codons are the basic units of the genetic code in DNA and RNA that specify the amino acids to be incorporated into a protein during translation.
What are sub-units of a chromosome that determine specific traits are called?
gene (I think...) The units of a chromosome that code for traits are genes.
A region of the dna molecule that stores instructions for a protein is called a?
A region of the DNA molecule that stores instructions for a protein is called a gene. Genes are the basic unit of heredity and provide the code for creating proteins through a process called transcription and translation.

Are hormones the basic units of heredity?
Not at all. Genes are. Everyone produces the same hormones but everyone has a unique genetic code
When a gene or genes which code for units which make up a protein are turned on by?
expressed
When a gene or genes which code for units which make up a protein said to be?
expressed
When a gene or genes which code for units which make up a protein are turned on by the Cell they are said to be?
Activated.
When a gene or genes which code for units which make up a protein are turned on by the Cell they are said to be what?
Activated.
What is the distinct segments of DNA that code for specific proteins called?
Double Helix
A piece of DNA that does not code for a protein is called a?
itron
What are mechanism of heredity?
Heredity is the inborn factors which affect development. The mechanism of heredity is DNA. DNA is partially made up of pairs of "steps" called bases. Bases make up our genetic code. Chromosomes are coils of DNA, which are made up of small segments called genes.
DNA sequences that code for proteins are called what?
genes
What are the key differences between protein and gene nomenclature?
Protein nomenclature refers to the naming of proteins based on their function or structure, while gene nomenclature involves naming genes based on their location on a chromosome or their function in the genome. Proteins are the end products of gene expression, and their names often reflect their specific roles in the body. Genes, on the other hand, are the units of heredity that code for proteins, and their names are usually based on their function or the specific protein they encode.
