Detailed Solution

Genes are segments of DNA that contain the instructions for a single protein. For the most part, organisms retain their genetic information as DNA. 

Each human cell has two copies of the genetic material, which is distributed over 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus. 

The term "human genome" refers to all of this. Around 30,000 genes that each code for one protein can be found in the human genome. Hence, the section of DNA that provides information for one protein is called a Gene.
