all the genes in an organism
A
allele
B
genome
C
embryo
D
trait
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A genome is the complete set of genetic information in an organism. It provides all of the information the organism requires to function. In living organisms, the genome is stored in long molecules of DNA called chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-2: -In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases. An international research effort called the Human Genome Project, which worked to determine the sequence of the human genome and identify the genes that it contains, estimated that humans have between 20, 000 and 25, 000 genes.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the fields of molecular biology and genetics, a genome is all the genetic information of an organism. It consists of nucleotide sequences of DNA (or RNA in RNA viruses).

Detailed explanation-4: -Humans typically have 23 pairs of chromosomes, or 46 chromosomes in total. Chromosomes are made up of long strands of DNA, which contain all the body’s genes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Definition. Gene is a segment of DNA that gives instruction for the synthesis of gene products such as RNA or protein. The whole nuclear DNA of a cell in an organism comprises its genome. It is the basic unit of heredity. It includes all the coding and non-coding DNA, along with mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA.
