génekhez

Génekhez refers to the concept of genes in Hungarian. A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA, and act as instructions to make proteins. Proteins perform a vast array of functions within cells. The specific sequence of DNA within a gene determines the sequence of amino acids in the protein it codes for, which in turn determines the protein's structure and function.

Organisms inherit genes from their parents. Humans have two copies of each gene, one inherited from their mother and one from their father. These genes are organized into structures called chromosomes, which are located within the nucleus of cells. The complete set of genes in an organism is called its genome.

The study of genes and heredity is known as genetics. Geneticists investigate how traits are passed from parents to offspring and how variations in genes can lead to differences in characteristics. Mutations, which are changes in the DNA sequence of a gene, can alter the protein produced and may lead to diseases or new traits. Understanding génékhez is fundamental to comprehending biological processes, inheritance patterns, and the development of various conditions.
