Genes and Chromosomes
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
A gene is a segment of DNA coding for a protein; chromosomes are the structures on which genes are carried.
Show
Human cells carry 23 pairs of chromosomes, one member of each pair inherited from each parent.
Watch for
Genes code for proteins, not for behaviors. Every path from gene to behavior runs through many steps.
