Tip: Vaseline Hairball Remedy. To prevent troublesome hairballs, apply a dollop of Vaseline petroleum jelly to your cat's nose. The cat will lick off the jelly, lubricating any hair in its stomach so it can pass easily through the digestive system. Source: My vet told me this years ago.E: Cat with Hairballs. The fur balls are probably more troublesome now because of advanced age and your baby just doesn't groom itself as much, just as what happens with we humans. The one thing I do is give my baby a heaping teaspoon or two of either sour cream or cream cheese as a treat each morning.
Genes are found inside choromosomes Genes are located on chromosomes, which are organized structures of DNA and protein. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus of the cell.Actually, a gene itself is coded for by the base sequence (the adenine-thymine and cytosine-guanine sequence) of a DNA strand.Hope that helps!hromosomes are found in the nucleus of the cell.

What is a gene? A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes, which are made up of DNA, act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases. The Human Genome Project has estimated that humans have between 20,000 and 25,000 genes. Every person has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. Most genes are the same in all people, but a small number of genes (less than 1 percent of the total) are slightly different between people. Alleles are forms of the same gene with small differences in their sequence of DNA bases.
