DNA – Deoxyribonucleic AcidThe Blueprint of Life – Controls everything that makes you, you – Transmits genetic informationWhen the cell is not dividing the DNA is found in the form of Chromatin ( a grainy appearing combination of DNA and histones) During cell division the DNA wraps tightly around the histones and forms ChromosomesDNA can be found in the Nucleus and the MitochondriaDNA has the 5 Carbon sugar DeoxyriboseYour DNA is approximately 99.9% the same as any other human, and research shows Chimp DNA to be 98.8 % the same as yours.

The differences in DNA from one person to the next can be used to identify suspects.

For DNA testing 13 markers are used, the FBI estimates the odds of some one sharing those genetic markers to be 1 in 113 billion. The fact that only 13 markers are used out of the entire DNA strain should bring into question the validity of DNA evidence.


Monomers, polymers, and macromolecules There are 4 categories of macromolecules: Carbohydrates Proteins, Lipids, and Nucleic acids.
