Detailed explanation-1: -Genes, segments of DNA present within the chromosomes of a cell, provide the code for conversion RNA into proteins, the functional and structural units of the human body. Hence, a gene is a template. These proteins determine the properties of our cells and their function, including the immune system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Genes are the functional segments of DNA as they are capable of producing mRNA. Gene is a segment of DNA that carries information from parents to offsprings and determines the heredity characters in the offsprings. The important functions of genes are:-Genes control the functions of DNA and RNA.
