What is a gene? A gene is a sample of DNA that helps produce a protein. It takes up 30,000 genes to make a human body.

How a gene works? A gene works by selecting a cell that it could work in and start functioning. If a gene do not fit in a cell it shouts down and opens a new gene and try to function with the next one. A gene controls your reaction and tries to challenge our environment around us.

How is a gene controlled? It is controlled by Cyclosprin-Protein complex.
