Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The sequence of nitrogen bases (A, T, C, G) in DNA is what forms an organism’s traits. The nitrogen bases A and T (or U in RNA) always go together and C and G always go together, forming the 5′-3′ phosphodiester linkage found in the nucleic acid molecules.
Detailed explanation-2: -Genes are small sections of DNA within the genome that code for proteins. They contain the instructions for our individual characteristics – like eye and hair colour.
Detailed explanation-3: -The order of nitrogenous bases in DNA is arranged in such a way that they code for the protein molecule (that is Amino acids).
