In this analogy, the correct statement is:
**Each structure is a gene.**
In this model, the manual contains instructions (like DNA) for building various structures (which represent genes). Each structure produced by following the instructions corresponds to a specific gene. The interlocking bricks could represent the individual nucleotides or building blocks of DNA, while the manual illustrates how these pieces come together to create genes and ultimately proteins.
