Genetics Vocabulary
... DNA — (deoxyribonucleic acid) A specialized molecule that contains the genetic information that allows characteristics to be passed from parents to offspring. The information contained in the DNA molecule provides a “blueprint,” or a set of codes, for building other molecules used by the cell. ...
