In this practice we'll be able to observe our DNA from our mouth cells.
Would you like to know a little about DNA?
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions for the development and function of living things.
All known cellular life and some viruses contain DNA.
The main role of DNA in the cell is the storage of information.
It is often compared to a blueprint, since it contains the instructions to construct other components of the cell, such as proteins and RNA molecules.
The DNA segments that carry genetic information are called genes, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes, or are involved in regulating the expression of genetic information.
In eukaryotes such as animals and plants, DNA is stored inside the cell nucleus, while in prokaryotes such as bacteria and archaea, the DNA is in the cell's cytoplasm.
See how we have done!
