Genes are components of DNA and RNA. Genes themselves are made up of four materials; I can only remember that two, guanine and cytosine. DNA is found in the nucleus but RNA can be found outside the nucleus but still inside the cell while mitochondrial DNA is found in the mitochondria in the cell. Mitochondrial DNA is passed strictly through the maternal line so your true birth mother can be distinguished this way and your maternal grandmothers dating back quite a distance.

the genetic material, DNA, essentially codes for everything in the cell. It codes for all proteins made, and the end result is that it has instructions for how everything is, from outward traits such as hair color to other traits such as the volume of blood produced. It is the instruction book of the body

Your body is made up of proteins. Fats and sugars are used to fuel your body. You eat them, and whatever you eat that is not a sugar or a fat can be transformed into one by your body. Usually, proteins are broken into its constituents amino acids and those are used to build new proteins.\n\nThen there are RNA molecules, which act as blueprints for your proteins. Each RNA contains the orders to create a certain protein (translation). Among these proteins are enzymes, that are proteins useful to create other proteins.\n\nIn turn, all these RNA molecules are created from your DNA (transcription). DNA is a very long molecule, and from segments of it the short RNA molecules can be created.\n\nSo DNA contains the information to make all the structural proteins in your body, and to make the enzymes that help build those proteins and that help put them in the right places.\n\nEach cell in your body has a copy of your complete DNA. That tells the cell what proteins to produce, where to put them, and what sort of production to emphasize for that particular cell.\n\nSo cells in the hair follicles are 'programmed' to produce hairs, while neurons are 'programmed' to produce electrical impulses and store a memory of them.\n\nHow does each cell know what it is supposed to do?\n\nEarly in development, when you're a zygote, your cells are not differentiated. Any cell can become any part of your body. Then, as they divide, their position in the ball of cells formed generates certain signals that activate or deactivate certain parts of the DNA.\n\nThe long DNA molecule is packed, meaning that some regions are left free to be transcribed (that is, to generate the RNAs that will generate the proteins from there), while others are tightly closed with proteins called histones (generated by the DNA itself, and acting according to the differentiation signal).\n\nThe undifferentiated cells are called "stem cells" and with the right signals can be turned into almost anything, from an eye cell to a neuron or a kidney cell. Once they become differentiated, they assume their role for themselves and all their descendants.\n\nDifferentiated cells only translate the relevant parts of their genetic code. In fact, all cells contain all the information and could potentially take on the role of any other cell, but that is prevented by the tight histone packing of certain segments of the DNA.\n\nIf a way were found to un-differentiate an already mature cell, whoever does it would become rich (that cell could be used to generate more and generate entire tissues or even organs to replace defective tissues and organs).\n\nI hope it's fairly clear.

Each cell contains our DNA makeup, it is protected inside the cell from bacteria, viruses and other harmful agents.  Without DNA our body would not be able to replicate and replace the cells which make up for example our organs or skin.  We are constantly producing new skin cells to replace the ones that we shed off every second.

So lets learn cell structure. We are made of cells. Cells form tissues and tissues form organs and organs form systems and systems make the organism so we are made from cells (Microbes.). Or if you want to be very specific and start from everything before atoms then We are made up of Gluon cells inside atoms.The structure of a cell is a cytoplasm or liquid bag in the center. Cell tissue inside most of it and and a nucleus inside the cytoplasm. I hope sincerely that this answers your question.

RNA are the transporter of DNA. DNA therefore depends a bit on the RNA condition. Both are in the chromosome which condition also depends on the condition of the cells. Cell condition depends on what kind of food and drink you take. The Quality of RNA can be in its best if your body is in good shape and in a good biological condition. Take good food, balanced diet and best of all take plenty of water cause it is the primary component of everything inside.

Organelles\nMain article: Organelle \nThe human body contains many different organs, such as the heart, lung, and kidney, with each organ performing a different function. Cells also have a set of "little organs," called organelles, that are adapted and/or specialized for carrying out one or more vital functions. Membrane-bound organelles are found only in eukaryotes.\n\nCell nucleus (a cell's information center)  \nThe cell nucleus is the most conspicuous organelle found in a eukaryotic cell. It houses the cell's chromosomes, and is the place where almost all DNA replication and RNA synthesis occur. The nucleus is spheroid in shape and separated from the cytoplasm by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope. The nuclear envelope isolates and protects a cell's DNA from various molecules that could accidentally damage its structure or interfere with its processing. During processing, DNA is transcribed, or copied into a special RNA, called mRNA. This mRNA is then transported out of the nucleus, where it is translated into a specific protein molecule. In prokaryotes, DNA processing takes place in the cytoplasm. \nRibosomes (the protein production machine)  \nRibosomes are found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The ribosome is a large complex composed of many molecules, including RNAs and proteins, and is responsible for processing the genetic instructions carried by an mRNA. The process of converting an mRNA's genetic code into the exact sequence of amino acids that make up a protein is called translation. Protein synthesis is extremely important to all cells, and therefore a large number of ribosomes — sometimes hundreds or even thousands — can be found throughout a cell. \nMitochondria and Chloroplasts (the power generators)  \nMitochondria are self-replicating organelles that occur in various numbers, shapes, and sizes in the cytoplasm of all eukaryotic cells. As mitochondria contain their own genome that is separate and distinct from the nuclear genome of a cell, they play a critical role in generating energy in the eukaryotic cell, a process involving a number of complex metabolic pathways. Chloroplasts are larger than mitochondria, and convert solar energy into a chemical energy ("food") via photosynthesis. Like mitochondria, chloroplasts have their own genome. Chloroplasts are found only in photosynthetic eukaryotes, like plants and algae. There is a number of plant organelles that are modified chloroplasts; they are broadly called plastids, and are often involved in storage. \nEndoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus (macromolecule managers)  \nThe endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the transport network for molecules targeted for certain modifications and specific destinations, as compared to molecules that will float freely in the cytoplasm. The ER has two forms: the rough ER, which has ribosomes on its surface, and the smooth ER, which lacks them. Translation of the mRNA for those proteins that will either stay in the ER or be exported from the cell occurs at the ribosomes attached to the rough ER. The smooth ER is important in lipid synthesis, detoxification and as a calcium reservoir. The Golgi apparatus, sometimes called a Golgi body or Golgi complex is the central delivery system for the cell and is a site for protein processing, packaging, and transport. Both organelles consist largely of heavily-folded membranes. \nLysosomes and Peroxisomes (the cellular digestive system)  \nLysosomes and peroxisomes are often referred to as the garbage disposal system of a cell. Both organelles are somewhat spherical, bound by a single membrane, and rich in digestive enzymes, naturally-occurring proteins that speed up biochemical processes. For example, lysosomes can contain more than three dozen enzymes for degrading proteins, nucleic acids, and certain sugars called polysaccharides. Here we can see the importance behind compartmentalization of the eukaryotic cell. The cell could not

The cell is the structural and functional unit of all living organisms, and is sometimes called the "building block of life." Some organisms, such as bacteria, are unicellular, consisting of a single cell. Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular, (humans have an estimated 100 trillion or 1014 cells; a typical cell size is 10 µm, a typical cell mass 1 nanogram).\n\nThe cell theory, first developed in 1839 by Schleiden and Schwann, states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells; all cells come from preexisting cells; all vital functions of an organism occur within cells, and cells contain the hereditary information necessary for regulating cell functions and for transmitting information to the next generation of cells.\n\nThe word cell comes from the Latin cella, a small room. The name was chosen by Robert Hooke when he compared the cork cells he saw to the small rooms monks lived in.\n\nAll cells, whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic, have a membrane, which envelopes the cell, separates its interior from its environment, regulates what moves in and out, and maintains the electric potential of the cell. Inside the membrane, a salty cytoplasm takes up most of the cell volume. All cells possess DNA, the hereditary material of genes, and RNA, containing the information necessary to build various proteins such as enzymes, the cell's primary machinery. There are also other kinds of biomolecules in cells.

B) Membrane-bound organelles\nThe procariotic cells are like a water-filled baloon, they are just a cover with water and other things (of course, this is only an example), while eukaryotic cells have compartiments.\nEvery cell has DNA, that's the way information is passed from cell to cell when they reproduce.\nRibosomes are important for producing proteins, every cell has to have them, even if with time they lose them.\nCytoplasm is the 75% of every cell, it's basically water, proteins and other things.
