ava are DNA Ichrichromosomes really long mcmolecules of 1. DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid. Its a chemical that all of the genetic material in a cell is made up from 2. It contains coded information - all the instructions. to put an organism together and make it work 3. It is whats in your DNA that determines what. inherited characteristics you have 4. DNA is found in the nucleus of animals & Plants cells, in a really long structures called chromosomes S. Chromosomes normally come in pairs 6. DNA is a polymer. It is made up of two strands coiled together in the shape of a double helix a Codes jer a specifici protein in gene 1. A gene is a small section of DNA jound on a chromosome 2. Each gene codes for a particular sequence of amino acids which are put together to make a specific pattera protein 3. Only 20 amino acids are used, but they make up thousands of different proteins 4. Genes simply tell cells what order to put the amino acids together 5. DNA also determines what proteins the cell produces # for example, haemoglobin, keratin 6. That, in turn, determines what type of cell it is, Jor example, red blood cells, Skin cells. has genome every Or organism what 1.

Knowing which genes are linked to inherited diseases could help us understand them better. and could help us to develop effective treatment for them. 3. Scientists can loox at genomes to trace the migration of certain populations of people around the world. All modern humans are descended. incestor who lived in Africa, from a common but humans can now be found all over the planet.
