Genes, DNA and Chromosomes explained

This newest science animation is about genes, DNA and Chromosomes. There is SO much more to say about this subject, but I decided to start off with the basics, and I will definitely make another animation on this subject again. Don't hesitate to comment if you it turns out I made an mistake somewhere, or if you want to tell me something else!

Hi there,
I was about to use this video for my class, but I found a mistake. Your base pair colours don't match up properly when the bases are being explained. This may not be too hard for you to fix. A always binds to T, G always binds to C (except when a mutation is formed)

when a 136 second video taught you more than your biology teacher did for 2 hours

[anabelleb]

Learnt more in a two minute video than I did in a whole terms worth of science classes! Thank you so much, very much appreciated

Can we talk about how relaxing and calming his voice is

Was looking for a very simple video explaining just these three. Didn't really think I'd find one this good. Very easy to understand for someone with zero knowledge on the subject, great voice-over, simple yet beautiful animation with an amazing piano piece in the background. Thank you! Will definitely watch your other videos.

My teacher showed this to my class and a kid started crying lmao

The ease of explaining and understanding I have gotten from this video in one shot is amazing

[sheyg]

That was ridiculously concise and yet still taught a lot of good, foundational information for understanding biology. Great stuff!

The music and your voice give the video a certain calming effect, I quite enjoy it.

a 2 minute video taught me more than a life time in school

[maryevelynnsorrell]

This is an excellent capsulazation! I will use it with my ESL class of international students. THis is the FIRST time I've ever made a comment on a YouTube video & I use them often in class. So kudos to you & your designers.

Best explanation ever! Took me 3 months to learn what this guy summed up in 2 minutes!

late night revision for a genetics test tmr, just greaattt

[srutea]

I used this to help study for my science test and it really helped me! Thank you!!

'you just made a confusing concept so lucid. Thank you so much!! Much appreciated.

I am just doing this because I want to learn, so please correct me if I am wrong.

DNA is a long line/ladder/strand of genetic coding. In informal words, it is a biological computer programming language with a built-in blueprint for the creation of proteins, which in turn make up most of our body.
Genes are sections/chunks of DNA in charge of a bodily thing/a thing of the body such as the skin. They decide many things for the thing they're in charge of like its appearance, function and others.
Chromosomes are packages of proteins around which are tightly-wrapped DNA. They occur in the nucleus, cytoplasm and mitochondria.

I really love how calmly this was delivered ...thank you

[Lizrosee]

This is the final resort when you have two days until your exam and haven’t payed attention all year. This video was very helpful!

[pradeep_kumar_ind]

Wow..The best video on DNA and Genes!. This is the only video that has taught me all these in the most simplest manner. Thanks!.

Its soo fliping relaxing and calmingggg
