What is DNA |
Deoxyribosenucleic acid for the inherited genetic material inside each cell. 46 chromosomes per cell. Each gene is a segment of DNA molecule and determines the traits inherited and by controlling protein synthesis they regulate most cell activity. |

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) |
Relays instructions from the genes to guide protein synthesis at the ribosomes. |

DNA is like a twisted ladder called a double helix |
The sides are alternating phosphate groups The rungs are paired bases held together by hydrogen bonds The order of the nucleotides along the molecule codes for informations the informations determines the traits you inherit as well as regulating what happens in the cell and when it happens. |
