Genome

Real World Example

Imagine trying to assemble a complex piece of furniture using a detailed instruction manual. Just as each page of the manual provides specific instructions for assembling different parts, the genome is like that manual for an organism, containing all the instructions needed to build and maintain it. Each gene in the genome acts like a step or part list in the manual, ensuring that every element of the organism is constructed accurately and functions properly, much like how the instructions ensure the furniture is assembled correctly.
