What 'Genes' Means
This easy to understand animation explains the influence that genes have on our everyday lives, from the colour of our eyes to the way our body works, grows and develops. It illustrates how we are made of cells, where our genes can be found, what genes do and how this leads to variation between people. The effect of faults in genes and genetic disorders are also explained. This animation was produced by Genetic Disorders UK, which provides schools with a host of free resources for increasing awareness and understanding of genetic disorders.
