Solution Steps

Step 1: Identifying the missing words in the sentence

The sentence discusses the human genome, the genes it contains, and the number of proteins they encode.

Step 2: Filling in the blanks based on knowledge of the human genome

The first blank refers to the approximate number of genes, while the second refers to the approximate number of proteins. The human genome contains around 20,000-25,000 genes which encode about 100,000 proteins. More than a million different proteins is now known to be too high of an estimate.

Final Answer:

The human genome contains 20,000-25,000 genes that encode about 100,000 proteins.
