Dig out a ditch where your French drain will go. A standard French drain ditch is about 1.5 feet deep and 10-12 inches wide, varying based on the size of the pipe chosen (usually 4-6 inches) and the desired depth. Line the ditch on all sides with landscape fabric to prevent soil erosion.
1 A gene is a small section of DNA that contains the instructions for a specific molecule, usually a protein. 2  The purpose of genes is to store information. 3  Each gene contains the information required to build specific proteins needed in an organism.enes are small sections of DNA within the genome that code for proteins. They contain the instructions for our individual characteristics â like eye and hair colour.
Genetic Information. The main job of DNA is to carry the code for making proteins. A gene is a stretch of DNA that can be read by proteins called ribosomes, and copied into a type of nucleic acid called messenger RNA (mRNA).The mRNA then carries this information to a protein machine that reads the information in mRNA and makes proteins.enetic Information.
