A gene is the molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is used extensively by the scientific community as a name given to some stretches of deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA) and ribonucleic acids (RNA) that code for apolypeptide or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. An allele or allel, is one of a number of alternative forms of the same gene or same genetic locus.
