검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand that a gene is a fundamental unit of heredity in genetics, responsible for carrying information that influences traits.
Recognize that genes are specific segments of DNA, not entire chromosomes or organelles.
Recall that genes contain the instructions to produce functional products, which can be proteins or RNA molecules.
Differentiate a gene from other genetic terms: it is not the whole DNA set (genome), nor an organelle, nor a chromosome pair.
Conclude that the correct definition of a gene is a segment of DNA that encodes a functional product and contributes to an organism's traits.
