    Glossary DNA

    molecule that carries genetic instructions for living organisms

    DNA, or Deoxyribonucleic Acid, is the molecule that carries the genetic instructions for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses. It consists of two long strands forming a double helix, with each strand made up of a sequence of nucleotides that encode the biological information necessary for life.
