Your genome, 46 or more
chromosomes and the guesstimated 30,000 genes on them, was once thought in
charge of determining your development. This included your height, skin hue,
eye color, IQ, and so on. Additional types of genomes have been described such
as:
Epigenome: the set of chemical modifications that
can occur to the DNA in the cell, which alter gene expression and are heritable.
Microbiome: a term used to
describe the trillions of microorganisms
(such as fungi, bacteria and viruses) that exist in or on your body.
Microbiota: the variety of
bacteria in the human body, helpful and harmful.
Virome: the viral component of the microbiome. Its
trillions of viruses likely outnumber the microbiota.
