Answer:

of the same thing

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the molecule that contains the hereditary genetic material in humans and almost all other organisms. Moreover, chromosomes are thread-like structures composed of DNA that contain part or all of the genetic material of a particular organism. Finally, genes are chromosome segments that contain the information needed to synthesize an RNA molecule by the process of transcription, typically a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule which is subsequently used to encode a protein sequence through the process of translation.
