Two meters of instructions folded into a space smaller than a grain of sand — that is the DNA inside every one of your 37 trillion cells.
Two meters of instructions folded into a space smaller than a grain of sand — that is the DNA inside every one of your 37 trillion cells.
DNA carries genetic instructions in a four-letter code (A, T, G, C). You inherit half from each parent. Genetics explains traits, diseases, and evolution.
Describe the structure of DNA and the base-pairing rule
Explain how traits are inherited from parents to children
Apply Mendelian genetics to predict trait inheritance
