DNA, RNA, Mutations

What is the role of DNA?

• stores genetic info

• copies genes before cell division

• transmits genes from one generation to another

• All of the above

DNA are made up of Nucleotides...what are the THREE parts of a nucleotide?

• A, T, C

• sugar, phosphate, and a base

• nucleus, mitochondria, cell membrane
