Once you are done with this lesson you should be able to: 1  Identify the Abbasids. 2  Describe the roles of the caliphs and the viziers. 3  Explain how the caliphs' focus on trade led to the Golden Age of Islam. 4  Summarize the fall of the Abbasids.
Alleles are forms of the same gene with small differences in their sequence of DNA bases. These small differences contribute to each personâs unique physical features. Genes are made up of DNA.Each chromosome contains many genes. 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.lleles are forms of the same gene with small differences in their sequence of DNA bases. These small differences contribute to each personâs unique physical features. Genes are made up of DNA.
The DNA also contains large sequences that do not code for any protein and their function is not known. The gene of the coding region encodes instructions that allow a cell to produce a specific protein or enzyme. There are nearly 50,000 and 100,000 genes with each being made up of hundreds of thousands of chemical bases. In order to make proteins, the gene from the DNA is coped by each of the chemical bases into messenger RNA (ribonucleic acid) or mRNA. The mRNA moves out of the nucleus and uses cell organelles in the cytoplasm called ribosomes to form the polypeptide or amino acid that finally folds and configures to form the protein.
