Why does the giraffe have such a long neck? Analysis zeroes in on
... Comparing The Giraffe With Its Relative, The Okapi But the differences were probably the result of a few small changes in the giraffe's genes. Genes are sections of DNA that tell a specific part of the body how to grow and work. A genome is made of up DNA and genes. It contains all of the informatio ...

It would mark the position of 30000-35000 genes on the chromosomes and then go back and sequence those genes according to DNA nucleotide sequence – the A’s, C’s, G’s and T’s. • The scientists will now know th ...
