      Hi!

      Deoxyribonucleic acid is often called DNA, and is a molecule that carries our genetic information. It looks like a double-helix, made up of four matched nucleotides – G, C, T, and A. A definition more than that and you’re getting into the chemistry, which I don’t know so much about and you’ll have the opportunity to learn one day if you want 😉
