Alleles and genes

 Imagine the DNA being a sort of string (it's actually a sort of double helix, but imagine a string to make it easier).

Different parts of this string can be coded for different proteins, let's say that a certain part of this string is coded for DNA replication and another part for the pigmentation of your eyes. 

The most primitive life ever found was self-replicating RNA.
