  1. DNA & Chromosomes

  2. DNA Model • DNA can be compared to a ladder that is twisted into a continuous spiral shape known as a double helix • Each step contains pairs of chemicals • Adenine and Thymine pair together • Guanine and Cytosine pair together • http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/begin/traits/tour_chromosome.html

  3. Gene • A gene is thought to be a interrupted segment of DNA that contains coded instructions for specific traits. • Genes come in pairs and each possible version of a gene is called a allele
