DNA, short for deoxyribonucleic acid, is the molecule that contains the genetic code of organisms. This includes animals, plants, protists, archaea and bacteria. DNA is in each cell in the organism and tells cells what proteins to make. Mostly, these proteins are enzymes.
Basically, DNA is made of nucleotide bases with some sugars and phosphate molecules. In order to understand modern genetics a person must understand the structure and function of DNA as the molecule of inheritance.ritten by: Rafaelâ¢edited by: Paul Arnold â¢updated: 2/8/2010. The structure and function of DNA are highly interrelated. From the composition of base pairs to their spacial arrangement understanding the structure and function of DNA as the molecule of inheritance is of paramount importance to grasp modern genetics.
