Detailed explanation-3: -Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) (National Human Genome Research Institute)
Detailed explanation-4: -Because of its structure, DNA is commonly referred to as deoxyribonucleic acid. The nucleic acid has a phosphate backbone with bases such as adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine, while the deoxyribose portion contains pentose sugar. The-OH group at position two of the sugar ring is absent in deoxyribose.
Detailed explanation-5: -Each gene’s code uses the four nucleotide bases of DNA: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T)-in various ways to spell out three-letter “codons” that specify which amino acid is needed at each position within a protein.
