Leslie Follmar 2008 GENETICS The study of how traits are inherited.

Leslie Follmar 2008 Let’s look inside your cells! Where is your genetic material??

Leslie Follmar 2008 chromosomes are inside the nucleus of each cell nucleus Where is your genetic material??

Leslie Follmar 2008 Each chromosome is made of DNA DNA Where is your genetic material??

Leslie Follmar 2008 Where is your genetic material?? Each section, or strand, of DNA contains genes.
