3.16 DNA and Genetic information


3.16 DNA and Genetic information




  • A chromosome has thousands of genes that when expanded and magnified, you would find 2 helix that are parallel- When we zoom in again, we see what holds the strands of the helix together, the two sections 
  • 'Sugar Phosphate ?Backbone' is what holds both helixes together
  • Molecules called bases that hold both helixes together
    • Adenine (A)
    • Thymine (T)
    • Cytosine (C)
    • Guanine (G)
