General Biology DNA and RNA Deoxyribonucleic Acid and Ribonucleic Acid • DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid. It is located in the nuclei of cells‚ which make up the body. Consequently‚ DNA can be considered as one of the building blocks of the body. Where is DNA found? DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material that lies within the nucleus of all cells in humans and other living organisms. Most of the DNA is placed within the nucleus and is called nuclear DNA. However‚

Aliens built the Egyptian pyramids. Recent research supports the theory that the Pyramids were built long before humans inhabited the area now known as Egypt. It is also nearly impossible for the Egyptians to have lifted and moved the limestone brick used to build these massive structures. Only a more advanced form of life could have constructed such an enormous undertaking‚ while using advanced mathematics and geography that were not yet known to ancient peoples. Archeologists suggest that

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

What is the function of non-coding DNA besides structural? There has been speculation about Non-coding’s function. Non-coding DNA has been said to be “Junk DNA” until scientists have found evidence for it having a structural function. More scientists are now trying to find more functions that Non-coding DNA might have. Non-coding DNA lies between genes on the Chromosome and does not code for amino acids. Regular DNA is also found in the Chromosome‚ but it does code for amino acids with help from
