• The genetic material in the nucleus of a cekk is composed f a chemical called DNA
• DNA is a polymer made up of two strands forming a double helix
• The DNA is contained in structures called chromosomes
• A gene is a small section od DNA on a chromosome
• Each gene codes for a particular sequence of amino acids to make a specific protein
• The genome of an organism is the entire genetic material of that organism
• The whole human genome has nine been studies and this will have great importance for medicine in the future
• The genome of an organism is the entire genetic material of that organism
• genome = the entire set of genetic material in an organism
• chromosomes are really long molecules of dna
