DNA -- The Double Helix
... Chromosomes are composed of genes, which is a segment of DNA that codes for a particular protein which in turn codes for a trait. For example, it may be the gene for baldness or the gene for blue eyes. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick established the structure of DNA. The shape of DNA is a do ...

Mutagen
In genetics, a mutagen is a physical or chemical agent that changes the genetic material, usually DNA, of an organism and thus increases the frequency of mutations above the natural background level. As many mutations can cause cancer, mutagens are therefore also likely to be carcinogens. Not all mutations are caused by mutagens: so-called ""spontaneous mutations"" occur due to spontaneous hydrolysis, errors in DNA replication, repair and recombination.
