- Explain the double-stranded, complementary nature of DNA
- as related to its function in the cell.
- DNA: Deoxyribonucleic Acid
- Double Stranded Shape A.K.A. Double Helix (Discovered by Watson and Crick in the 1950's)
- As the Voki states, the double stranded shape allows the DNA to create two exact replicas of the "parent" DNA.
- The nucleotide bases for DNA pair as follows: Adenine to Thymine, and Guanine to Cytosine.
- This is all related to the function of DNA because without the replication process, an organism would ultimately be unable to grow.
