Every cell in the body holds DNA (deoxy ribonucleic acid), a complex molecule made up of smaller molecules called nucleotides. There are four types of nucleotide 1. cystonine (c) 2. guanine(g) 3. adenine(A) 4. Thymine(T). DNA is arranged into structures called chromosomes. They make up human genome. The full genome holds 6.5 million characters made up of C, G, A , and T, while a 300-page book has 300000 characters made up of 26 alphabets. Human Genome project transcribed all the nucleotides (characters). It took two decades. More than 90 % of our DNA is like Monkey's DNA. Our characteristics such as hair color, eye color, height and other physical features are coded in the 2% of our DNA. The purpose of remainin g 98% of the DNA is just be...
