DNA & Chromosome Notes

What is DNA? DNA is the strand that contains genes that is found in your nucleus.

What is the difference between genes and DNA? Small sections of DNA are called genes Gene DNA

What are chromosomes? Chromosomes are DNA packaged into a thread like structure called Chromosomes!

How many chromosomes do we have? We have a total of 48 chromosomes. We get 24 from our Mom and 24 from our Dad.
