Genes are a section of DNA that are in charge of different functions like making proteins. Long strands of DNA with lots of genes make up chromosomes. DNA molecules are found in chromosomes. Chromosomes are located inside of the nucleus of cells.
Each chromosome is one long single molecule of DNA. This DNA contains important genetic information.
Chromosomes have a unique structure, which helps to keep the DNA tightly wrapped around the proteins called histones. If the DNA molecules were not bound by the histones, they would be too long to fit inside of the cell.
Genes vary in complexity. In humans, they range in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases.
Different living things have different shapes and numbers of chromosomes. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, or a total of 46. A donkey has 31 pairs of chromosomes, a hedgehog has 44, and a fruit fly has just 4.
DNA contains the biological instructions that make each species unique.
DNA is passed from adult organisms to their offspring during reproduction. The building blocks of DNA are called nucleotides. Nucleotides have three parts: A phosphate group, a sugar group and one of four types of nitrogen bases.

Hi....Dear...!! Beautiful Morning to u buddy !!
A gene is the fundamental functional unit of heredity. It is because of a gene comprised of nucleotides that is responsible for the physical heredity.
Genes are specific sequences of bases that encode instructions on how to make proteins.
