What is the total information capacity in bits of the human


Genetic information in all living things is coded as DNA molecules. A DNA molecule is a linear sequence of the four basic nucleotides: A, C, G, and T. The human genome contains approximately 3 * 109 nucleotides in the form of about 30,000 genes. What is the total information capacity (in bits) of the human genome? What is the maximum information capacity (in bits) of the average gene?
