Summary Introduction
To explain: Role of the genome at the molecular, cellular and organism level.
Introduction: Genome is defined as the complete genetic material that is present in an organism. It consists of both the coding as well as the non-coding parts of DNA. Genome is important at all the level of organizations (molecular, cellular and organism).

This structure makes the process of replication that occurs prior to mitosis and meiosis very reliable. The purpose of DNA, though, is not simply to make copies of itself, but to provide a set of instructions for the synthesis or "construction" of biomolecules, such as proteins. Why is transcription (i.e. the formation of an RNA copy of a given gene) a necessary step in the "construction" process highlighted above? What is the cell looking to ultimately do with this RNA information?arrow_forwarddescribe the main steps required to clone a gene and produce a protein.arrow_forward
