<th>
Gene is located on the chromosome. Chromosomes are the packed structure of a DNA with proteins.
Genes are not visible under the microscope. Chromosomes are visible under the microscope.
A single gene is a locus on a chromosome. A single chromosome comprises of many genes.
Genes are composed of either DNA or RNA. Chromosomes are composed of DNA, histones, and RNA.
Gene mutations are small. Chromosomal mutations are relatively large.
Gene mutations lead to point mutations and frameshift mutations: insertions and deletions Chromosomal mutations lead to chromosomal abnormalities such as deletion, duplication, rearrangement and inversion of genes.
