... chromosome containing between 700 and 3,000 genes. Each gene consists of fragments of DNA sequence called exons, which contain the information necessary for the synthesis of proteins, and introns, interspersed with exons, that carry out a different function. They can be represented like the followin ...

... Example: Achromotopsia is a genetic disorder where the retina does not have any cones and, as a result, people with achromotopsia do not have colour vision. Scientists have recently discovered a population of people living on a small Pacific island who have a very high rate of achromotopsia. They su ...
