When comparing genomes from different species, scientists are often interested in the genome density, or the number of genes per
Setler79 [48]

The human genome density ranges between 12-15 genes per Megabase pairs. This is because humans have approximately 2000 genes in a total of approximately 3 billion base pairs. However, some primitive organisms have an even larger gene density than humans. An example is bacteria with gene densities ranging between 100 – 500 genes/Mb. Gene density is therefore not a good characteristic in determining the complexity of an organism.

-BARSIC- [3]
This statement about matter is true: MATTER IS MADE UP OF ATOMS AND HAS MASS. 
Matter is defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. The mass of an object is the measure of the extent to which the object can resist a change in its direction when a force is applied to it. A matter is usually made up of atoms, which is defined as the smallest component of any matter. Therefore matter is made up of atoms and it has mass.
