Study Notes

DNA Structure

DNA in eukaryotic cells is composed of millions of nucleotides bonded together to form a double helix shape.
A nucleotide consists of a phosphate, a sugar molecule, and one of four nitrogenous bases.

Function of DNA

DNA codes for amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins.

Replication Process

Human cells undergo DNA replication, resulting in the DNA doubling in volume.
This process occurs at specific times in the life of human cells.

Genes and Traits

A DNA molecule contains thousands of genes that influence the characteristics and traits of individual humans.
