Basic concepts

You probably know most of these things, but it easy to have an overview

1.Gene

A gene is a heritable coded unit. Three words appear in it. So it is most easy to explain these. Heritable means a gene is passed from one generation to the other generation. The coded means it is a code which will be copied first (transcription)and later on translated (which is called uh ... translation). The unit means there is no smaller thing that will be a functional or working code (though splicing and post-translational events can make things more complicated).
