, HOW GENES CONTROL CELL FUNCTION
Each chromosome contains hundreds to thousands of genes, which carry the instructions for making
proteins. As of 2020, scientists believe there are approximately 21,000 protein-coding genes in humans.
Polypeptide = New form of Protein
, There are 2 processes involved in protein synthesis:
