| Where is DNA found in an organism? | In organisms called eukaryotes, DNA is found inside a special area of the cell called the nucleus. |
| What is the difference between one gene and the other? | - Order of bases along the DNA strand - Number of bases in that section of DNA |
| list the proteins that our cells need to survive and function well? | - structural, such as collagen found in tendons and ligaments and keratin found in skin, hair, nails. - Regulatory, such as growth hormone which stimulates growth and cell reproduction |
