    Introduction DNA (Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid) is a nucleic acid that has many names‚ each representing the phases that it undergoes (chromosomes‚ chromatin‚ genes/alleles); it resides in the nucleus (bound by 2 *phospholipid bilayers) of almost every cell in the body (red blood cells being an exception). DNA (your genotype) is double stranded and is responsible for replicating (from 46 to 92) during Interphase‚ so that mitosis can make new cells‚ repairing and allowing for growth in the body. It is

    DNA: DNA is a double-stranded nucleic acid that contains the genetic information for cell growth‚ division‚ and function. DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria .The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four nitrogen bases which are adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C)‚ and thymine (T). these nitrogen bases are bind with
