12. Essential Standard of DNA
*Describe the chemical and structural properties of DNA*
DNA is a polymer formed from linked subunits (nucleotides)
Genetic info is encoded in genes based on the sequence of subunits
Each DNA molecule in a cell forms a single chromosome
34. Genetic information is
encoded in the sequence of
nitrogen bases
ATGCTTAAAGCTATA
These“coding
sequences” are
known as genes.
35. Genetic information is
encoded in the sequence of
nitrogen bases
ATGCTTAAAGCTATA
These“coding
sequences” are
known as genes.
ONLY 4 letters make up EVERY living organism!!
