The DNA molecule carries the genetic code for building organisms The DNA molecule carries the genetic code for building organisms. Contained in its intricate structure is the complex biological information needed to produce the proteins that make up the bodies of all living things. DNA is found inside the nucleus of each cell, tightly packed onto larger structures called chromosomes. The complete library of genetic instructions included in DNA is called a genome. During reproduction, this genetic information is copied and transmitted from parents to their offspring
