How did the info in my DNA become my traits? This is a question that has been asked by many over the course of history.To answer this question we need to answer three essential questions‚ the first‚ how did we get our DNA‚ how did we go form one cell to trillions‚ and how did DNA become our traits. There is one essential driver to all of this‚ DNA‚ to understand DNA‚ we need to know what DNA is. DNA is two strands that contain genetic information in four bases‚ adenine‚ guanine‚ cytosine and thymine

STRUCTURE OF DNA Structure of DNA University Of Phoenix Principles of Biology BIO/101 Phil Clifford January 13‚ 2009 Structure of DNA Since the beginning of human history‚ people have been intrigued how traits are inherited from one generation to the next. What is DNA? DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (called nuclear DNA)‚ but a small amount of DNA can also be

reliability of DNA forensics. In 1984‚ British geneticist Alec Jeffreys of the University of Leicester discovered an interesting new marker in the human genome. Most DNA information is the same in every human‚ but the junk code between genes is unique to every person. Junk DNA used for investigative purposes can be found in blood‚ saliva‚ perspiration‚ sexual fluid‚ skin tissue‚ bone marrow‚ dental pulp‚ and hair follicles (Phillips‚ 2008). By analyzing this junk code‚ Jeffreys found certain sequences

Coal is combusted and converted to water which turns to steam‚ this starts a turbine; this is how coal generates electricity. 5.

DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA)‚ but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C)‚ and thymine (T). The order‚ or sequence‚ of
