Now it is clear that genes are what carry our traits through generations and that genes are made of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). But genes themselves don't do the actual work. Rather, they serve as instruction books for making functional molecules such as ribonucleic acid (RNA) and proteins, which perform the chemical reactions in our bodies.Proteins do many other things, too. They provide the body's main building materials, forming the cell's architecture and structural components. But one thing proteins can't do is make copies of themselves. When a cell needs more proteins, it uses the manufacturing instructions coded in DNA.The DNA code of a gene—the sequence of its individual DNA building blocks, labeled A (adenine), T (thymine), C (cytosine) and G (guanine) and collectively called nucleotides— spells out the exact order of a protein's building blocks, amino acids.

Occasionally, there is a kind of typographical error in a gene's DNA sequence. This mistake— which can be a change, gap or duplication—is called a mutation.

A generalized swelling of an arm or a leg that occurs after surgical removal of a chain of lymph nodes is known as
Readme [11.4K]
This condition is known as lymphadema. After surgical removal of chain lymph nodes has occurred, the excess of lymph fluids in the lymph vessels might not find its way to the bloodstream as a result of being blocked or other reasons, and hence localized swelling in that area occurs as a result of addition of the fluids. In most cases, lymphadema affects only a single arm or leg, and is commonly brought on by cancer treatment that involves damging or removing lymph nodes.
