What is the difference between chromosomes and genes?
Hi Everyone:
Could someone explain the difference between chromosomes and genes? I am under the impression they go hand in hand. For instance, chromosomes are made up of genes which determine various physical and even psychological attributes ranging from hair color, eye color, height, weight, whether someone is introverted/extroverted, etc.
Realizing the differences between chromosomes and genes go further beyond this, I certainly look forward to reviewing everyone's shared input to this question.
Thank you
George
