In case you don't already know, DNA is what makes our bodies. Every part of you; your hair color, eye color, height, etc.; is all located in your DNA. It is so complex that if you were to print it on paper, it would probably stretch for miles. There are only four main structures that make up DNA; Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine; yet no two people can have the exact same DNA unless they are identical twins. Adenine and Thymine are always matched together, and Guanine and Cytosine are always matched together.
In one article I read on DNA I saw it mentioned how DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid. Also, DNA is in all living organisms. For us, DNA is located in our cells.
This is all very interesting to me because I find it amazing that our body can be so complex. Also, I think it is amazing that even though DNA is what creates our bodies, yet we can't even see it!
