DNA is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. It is a double helix of four chemical bases that store and transmit genetic informat… DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organis…The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). Human DNA consists of about 3 billion bases, and more than 99 percent of those bases are the same in all people. The order, or sequence, of these bases d… DNA bases pair up with each other, A with T and C with G, to form units called base pairs. Eac…An important property of DNA is that it can replicate, or make copies of itself. Each strand of DNA in the double helix can serve as a pattern for duplicating the sequence of bases. This is critical when cells divide because each new cell needs to have an exact copy of the DNA present in th…
