Fact About DNA
Chromosomes are made up of DNA and some proteins. Here are some interesting facts about DNA. - Genetic information is stored in the nucleic acid, that are of two types, i.e. DNA and RNA. - DNA has all the information that is required to make an organism. DNA is made up of a long strand with a specific order of nitrogen base which are – cytosine (C), thymine (T), guanine (G) and adenine (A), they always paired up in a unique way ‘A’ always paired with ‘T’, so ‘C’ with ‘G’. - Genetic composition is called the genotype of an organism, while its physical demonstration is called the phenotype. <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1363992487917368" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> - A single gram of DNA can possess 700 terabytes of data. - Every cell of the human body contains DNA. Every DNA strand is 1.8 meters long if stretched but it is squeezed into a space of 0.09 micrometres...
