  3. DNA (Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid) • DNA is genetic code for making: __________________________ • Genetic code is determined by sequence of: __________________________ • Nitrogen Bases pair up: __________________________

  4. DNA • DNA coiled up and condensed: _____________________________ • ______ Chromosomes in body cells of humans • ______ Chromosomes in sex cells (gametes) of humans • DNA and Chromosomes found in the: _____________________________ • Segment of DNA that codes for a protein: _____________________________

  5. Why do we need DNA and a Genetic Code? G  P  T __________  __________  __________
